Impressed by the Civilian	comment	An experienced warrior, whether friend or foe, is impressed enough to acknowledge an untrained civilian, either for their quick thinking, bravery, or unexpected prowess in a tense combat situation. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })For the purposes of this trope, a civilian is generally someone who does not have formal combat training. This includes military, law enforcement, or security agency members with support or non-combat roles like cooks and clerics as long as they haven't been trained beyond boot camp and have only served in safe support roles since then. Also, this is most definitely about civilians. Trained military personnel and law enforcement/security officers performing their duties is brave, but also expected. It's the purpose behind their training. It is an untrained individual who stands by their principles or outthinks the villain, thus earning the respect of the hero or the villain which matters to this trope.

Impressed by the Civilian / int_110d4471	comment	While filming Predator, the actors making up the Badass Crew underwent a daily military training regimen to both get in shape for filming and learn how to navigate the jungle setting. Several of the actors had military experience including Jesse Ventura (a Navy SEALnote While Ventura did not complete the extra 26 weeks of training required to be a SEAL by modern rules, he was part of the Underwater Demolition Unit which, during the war, were deployed with SEALs. After the war, the unit was absorbed by the SEALs, leading to some inaccurate criticisms of Ventura's credentials years later. during The Vietnam War who plays Blain), Richard Chaves (who plays Poncho), and even Arnold Schwarzenegger (who plays Dutch and did compulsory service in the Austrian National Army at 18). According to behind the scenes commentary, Carl Weathers, Bill Duke, and Sonny Landham impressed their veteran co-stars, ultimately being able to run five miles in the humid jungle, move silently, rappel, and communicate via military hand signals.

Impressed by the Civilian / int_13665790	comment	Thud!: Sam Vimes had no reason to like A.E. Pessimal when he was introduced as Lord Vetinari's inspector to the Watch. A small, unimpressive man with a fastidious nature and a fondness for paperwork, Pessimal was an annoyance. Then, through a series of circumstances, Pessimal ends up screaming defiance at a boozed-up mob of trolls and attacks one of them with his teeth to defend Vimes. When the normally unflappable Vetinari hears of this later, he's momentarily stunned to silence. Vimes later gives Pessimal a job in the Watch, recognizing that this is what Pessimal's always wanted, and he can use someone with Pessimal's skillset. He tops it off by giving Pessimal the right to call him "Mr. Vimes."

She adopts The Archetype as "Luke" and he and Maria become involved in Sarah's alien investigations. In "The Man Who Never Was", when Adriana, a cleaner who stands up for the enslaved Skullions, loses her job due to helping Sarah Jane free them, Sarah Jane gives her UNIT's business card, saying the organization could use someone as compassionate and quick-witted as her.

While pursuing your father during the main quest, you come upon a group of Brotherhood of Steel soldiers outfitted in Power Armor being attacked by a Super Mutant Behemoth. You can grab a Fat Man from a fallen Brotherhood soldier and use it to take out the mutant. Afterward, the Brotherhood will acknowledge that a civilian carrying a nuke is a scary sight, but they pay you the respect you deserve for saving their lives.

Amy Pond earns the 11th Doctor's respect after she prevents him from killing a Star Whale by revealing that the creature had volunteered its services. Then she follows it up by defeating a Dalek bomb by appealing to the human memories of the android carrying the bomb.
