Grand Military Council

As the highest authority in the Platinum Band, the Grand Military Council receives its orders directly from either the King or his appointed representative. It's the Council's duty to promptly and efficiently relay the King's wishes to the different Orders and to make sure they are implemented. The Council also must provide the King with accurate and important information about the readiness and capabilities of the military as a whole. The Grand Military Council does not have operational control over the Platinum Band.

Composition
The membership of the Council is composed of two high ranking officers from each of the Orders, as well as their personal staffs. They are appointed to the Council by their superior officers in their respective Orders. To be on the Council is considered the highest honor in the Platinum Band due to the role it plays in implementing policy and overseeing the work of the military. Members serve on the council for a period of up to ten years. After their terms are over they either return back to their old jobs in their Orders or retire.

Offices of the Council
In order to better serve the King and implement his wishes, the Grand Military Council has several specialized offices which work on certain inter-Order matters. These offices include:
 * Royal Institute for Awards and Medals
 * Office for Coordinating with the King
 * Office for Inter-Order Parades and Displays
