Line 13:
Has a very, ''very'' high chance of being [[Made of Iron]].
 
Compare [[Drill Sergeant Nasty]]. The [[Stern Teacher]] is more or less the civilian version. Is the military specific version of [[The Reliable One]].
 
{{examples}}
Line 19:
* Cmdr. Richard Mardukas in ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]''.
** A better example would be Lt. Belfangan Clouseau.
** Sagara Sousuke is, as well. Along with being a [[Drill Sergeant Nasty]]. Despite being a pretty [[The Spartan Way|harsh]] and [[Training Fromfrom Hell|sadistic]] teacher, he ''does'' get remarkably good results. Just look at the [[Brainwashed and Crazy|transformation]] of the whole army of girly rugby players. He's an even more effective teacher than [[Ax Crazy|Gauron]], despite Gauron having actually been a reputable and respectable AS instructor at a camp. Sousuke's coaching of Kaname actually managed to make it so that she could best Yu Lan, the assassin that was trained since childhood by Gauron to be a merciless killer.
* Combat Instructor Captain Nanoha Takamachi of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]''. Don't be fooled by the girly title; Nanoha can and will vaporize anything in her way, and she expects ''you'' to do the same, no excuses. She's respected by her entire unit because they know all their harsh training is because she wants them to be the strongest.
* Lieutenant Natarle Badgiruel from ''[[Gundam Seed]]'', as a foil to the [[Cool Big Sis]] / [[Team Mom]] [[The Captain|Captain]] Murrue Ramius.
Line 117:
 
== Tabletop Games ==
* ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'' has them in droves—after all, while the usual ''modus operandi'' of Imperium's armed forces in [[We Have Reserves]], the world around is ''so'' [[Crapsack World|dangerous]] that you need NCOs to keep their heads level.
** Gunnery Sergeant Harker of the Catachan Devils is one tough bastard, known for hauling around a Heavy Bolter [[I Call It Vera|that he calls "Payback"]].
** Colour Sergeant Jerran Kell of the Cadian 8th serves as the loyal bodyguard of Lord Castellan Ursarkar Creed and makes sure that the men under the Castellan's command obey his orders to the letter.
** Ironhand Straken of the Catachan 2nd is a [[Colonel Badass|Colonel]], but has the demeanor and attitude down pat.
