A battlefield commission is a promotion given to enlisted soldiers whereby they are given the rank of commissioned officers for outstanding leadership on the field of battle.

Martok received such a commission from General ShiVang due to his actions in defending his flagship from the Romulans. (DS9: "Once More Unto the Breach")
