recall that in the communist countries - Russia, East Germany, Cuba, etc. - every civilian and military department and agency had a political person who did not report to the unit chief but to the politburo.
Even when their sports teams left the country one or more of these characters would be with them dressed out in their athletic jump suits.
Are headed in that direction??
