The Knight's Cross is the second greatest honor a member can reasonably hope to achieve. Awarded to officers for constant long term extraordinary service and exceptional loyalty to the fleet, it is not given lightly. Exceptional Command Officers and Ship Captains will most often be the recipients of this medal, but not necessarily. Winners of the Knight's Cross most often are leaders who go beyond the line of duty in helping those in their unit and in the navy as a whole. These officers are the ones who are instrumental in stimulating members to reach new heights in achievement and activity. Each subsequent award upgrades the decorations. This medal can only be awarded by the Head of the High Council and the Naval Commander in Chief.
