CompForce Troopers are the soldiers of CompForce, serving as military police and political officers within the Imperial Military. They are divided into two very different cadres, Observation (also known as Observ), and Assault. As their name suggests, Assault units are front-line troops, pursuing professional military careers, whereas, officially at least, Observ personnel are loyalist volunteers, gaining first-hand experience of military life as a prelude to careers in the Army, Navy, or some other element of the Imperial armed forces. In fact, most of them end up pursuing careers in the Imperial Security Bureau itself, and Observ are regarded as political spies by line military personnel—an opinion which seems to have been subtly encouraged by operatives of the ISB's long-term rival, Imp

abstract	CompForce Troopers are the soldiers of CompForce, serving as military police and political officers within the Imperial Military. They are divided into two very different cadres, Observation (also known as Observ), and Assault. As their name suggests, Assault units are front-line troops, pursuing professional military careers, whereas, officially at least, Observ personnel are loyalist volunteers, gaining first-hand experience of military life as a prelude to careers in the Army, Navy, or some other element of the Imperial armed forces. In fact, most of them end up pursuing careers in the Imperial Security Bureau itself, and Observ are regarded as political spies by line military personnel—an opinion which seems to have been subtly encouraged by operatives of the ISB's long-term rival, Imperial Intelligence. The differing needs of Observ and Assault units mean that, while both groups recruit by drawing volunteers from Imperial youth groups, the criteria for selection is very different. Observ looks for ideologically reliable men and women, for whom a CompForce posting will be the first step on a career in service to the New Order; but Assault looks for recruits who can be conditioned to serve in combat with blind bravery. Any member volunteering for Observ might naturally expect to pass out from CompForce after a short tour and move on to a career in the line military, the Imperial Security Bureau, or some other aspect of the Empire's vast institutional machine; but in contrast, only twelve percent of the young men and women who enter Assault training even make it through into front-line units. The rest die in live-fire exercises during training or suffer serious injury or crippling psychological trauma.
