<font color='black' size='3' face='Comic Sans MS, sans-serif'>I guess they made some changes under King Michael. I wasn't quite paying attention when it happened, but the DEM position is now "Officer of State". I was reminded of this when Sir Otto told me that the office was 3 years and not 2, now that it was changed.

<div>Lorelei, is a change happening in the structure of the Kingdom Offices? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For the Kingdom Target Archery Marshal, has not been an 'Office of State', for at leat over a decade. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Ever since all the marshal positions became jusy deputies. And therefore the official title was just "Deputy Kingdom Earl marshal for Target Archery"</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hence where there aren't any 'of state' items. The office is filled/served as a deputy, at the behest of the Kingdom Earl Marshal. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now that's not to say we can't still have some fun with making our own regalia for it!</div>
