Q. I'm a new member. Where do I begin?
A. Most new members start with the basic insignia, which consists of the official insignia, chapter bar and ancestor bar. The three pins will automatically be mounted on ribbon for you. You may also start with just the official insignia by purchasing a hidden ribbon top bar.
