Call of Duty[]
It is seen being carried out in Call of Duty and Call of Duty: Finest Hour where Commissars would shout "All traitors will be shot!" from time to time, and sometimes shoot other soldiers who would fall back during battle.
It can also be considered stated in Call of Duty: United Offensive when Sgt Antonov yells "All traitors will be shot" and shoots you for not getting to the position or shooting at him and when the Russian troop train rams in and the Commissar on the top says "From this day forward, we will not take one step back". Sometimes, battalions meant for killing cowards were sent to take the "traitors" out.
