Introduction by the Director of Marksmanship
As we unveil our updated manual, we honor the foundational spirit set forth by Sir Martin Lessem. While the content has evolved—incorporating new protocols, tools, and strategies—Martin's original intent to foster teamwork and esprit de corps remains as vital as ever.
Here are some key updates we made in this manual: Centralized the Reporting and Awards process. Modified existing echelon level positions to be liaisons to the Marksmanship Office with new responsibilities Created incentives to keep playing and recording games after awards have been earned.
Below, you'll find Martin's timeless welcome message, which continues to inspire us.
In Service,

Welcome from the First Lord of the Admiralty
Welcome to the Marksmanship Handbook of The Royal Manticoran Navy: The Official Honor Harrington Fan Association, Inc. (TRMN).
The Markmanship Handbook was created to answer any & all questions concerning how the Marksmanship Awards are earned with TRMN.
As with all awards of TRMN, it is requested that you wear these with the regulations prescribed in this manual. Part of the fun of an organization such as TRMN are the many opportunities you have to earn awards and the new information you can learn while doing so. It is also important that our leaders lead by example, so I myself worked hard during 2017 and the early part of 2018 to earn my Space Warfare Pin, and greatly enjoyed doing so.
This handbook has been broken down by section to explain all the facets of the Marksmanship program.
Finally, we will update this handbook when changes are made to program or when a new criteria is changed. In the time between handbook revisions, Admiralty Orders will fill in for the updates as needed.
