Shago Platoon commander

During the Soviet-Afghan War, a commander of a platoon was stationed at Da Shago Kallai, and was considered alongside two other commanders enough of a threat to the Mujahideen to find an opportunity to kill him and his comrades in one fell swoop.

After the Red Army became privy to Venom Snake's actions during the conflict in 1984, this platoon commander, as well as one other platoon commander and a company commander at Da Wialo Kallai, held a meeting to discuss how to deal with Venom Snake, namely reinforcing their troops with more gear. Ironically, this meeting also led to them becoming endangered by an ambush by the Mujahideen due to a mole planted in the Soviet ranks when Venom Snake was hired by the Mujahideen to take them out in one fell swoop.

Behind the scenes
The Shago Platoon commander, alongside the Wialo Company commander and the Wakh Sind Platoon commander, were the three primary targets in the main mission "Red Brass" for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. The player can either kill them, or otherwise simply extract them to complete the mission. If the player chose the latter option, a debriefing scene upon completing the mission will have Miller explain the reason the Soviet commanders were holding the meeting after Ocelot interrogated them.
