Post-nominals in TRMN: add link

New page

'''Post-nominal letters''', commonly called [[post-nominals]], are letters placed after a person's name to indicate that the individual holds a position, academic degree, accreditation, office, military decoration, or honor. The order in which post-nominals are listed after a name is based on rules of precedence and what is appropriate for a given situation.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-nominal_letters Wikipedia article: Post-nominal letters]</ref>

==Post-nominals in TRMN==
In {{trmn}} (TRMN), a member may place post-nominals after their name based on awards they have been issued. The awards which qualify for post-nominals, as well as the order in which they are written, are all based on the [[canon]] usage of the [[Star Kingdom of Manticore]] as developed by [[BuNine]]. Mirroring real-world Imperial German practice, members of the [[Imperial Andermani Navy]] do not use post-nominals.

===Service Branch post-nominals===
Additionally, the Manticoran or [[Grand Alliance|allied]] [[branch]] in which a member serves is often designated by the initials of that branch written as post-nominals.
:''example:'' "[[CDR]] John Doe, [[RMN]]" indicates that John Doe is a commander in the [[Royal Manticoran Navy]].

The initials for the service branch may be used along with award post-nominals, in which case they will be placed after all award post-nominals.
