on a per unit basis.
Requests may be made by members and non members alike in writing or by email
to the National Office Manager. The appropriateness of all products and services
for which a mark is sought to be used in connection therewith shall be determined

the license mark without prior imprimatur of the National Officers of the Order

If you have any questions before submitting a request for a license, please write,
