The command unit is made up of one officer armed with a pistol and two riflemen. Here’s  a variety of officers that can be used in the command squad.

Two Schutztruppe officers, one in the classic Sudwester, the other in the more common tropical helmet. Both figures by Brigade GamesTwo Schutztruppe officers, one in the classic Sudwester, the other in the more common tropical helmet. Both figures by Brigade Games
Two naval officers in the khaki tropical uniform. They’d be officers from the SMS Koningsberg after she’d been scuttled and the crew had joined the Schutztruppe. Both sport the tropical helmet but in white. As the war progressed they would probably be dyed khaki. Both figures by Brigade Games. Two naval officers in the khaki tropical uniform.

While the remaining two members of the command squad are riflemen, here’s some buglers and flag bearers. While the core book doesn’t have rules for them, the next supplement to Blood and Valor will allow you to add either a flag bearer or a bugler.

A Pulp Figure on the left and a Brigade Games figure on the right, either one of them could replace a rifleman in the command squad. A Pulp Figure on the left and a Brigade Games figure on the right, either one of them could replace a rifleman in the command squad.
Both flag bearers are from Brigade Games. The flags are from Flags of War. On the right is the national flag. On the left is the military or Reichskriegsflagge.
