Force Served In

This dimension names the armed force a commander actually served in. Wikipedia notes that military ranks form "a system of hierarchical relationships within armed forces, police, intelligence agencies and other institutions organized along military lines," a hierarchy that ties every commander to one particular force. Browsing this way collects every commander who served in the same force.
