	In the early days of TRMN, the club leadership conceived that meeting chapters would be [[Royal Manticoran Navy]] ships, while correspondence chapters would be ships of the [[Grayson Space Navy]]. In practice, this scheme has no been adhered to, as the nationality of the ship is more commonly based on the role-play interests of the members, so both RMN and GSN ships may exist as either meeting or correspondence chapters. Other nationalities and types have been introduced, so that a ship may be from any of the following [[Grand Alliance]] member services:		In the early days of TRMN, the club leadership conceived that meeting chapters would be [[Royal Manticoran Navy]] ships, while correspondence chapters would be ships of the [[Grayson Space Navy]].

	In TRMN, an army chapter is a regiment, or portrays part of a notional regiment if the chapter is less than regimental strength. For example a Tier 3 sized chapter takes its name from a regiment, but portrays a company within that regiment. The regiment name stays the same as the chapter grows to portray larger echelons within the regiment, up to the entire regiment (if it is a Tier 9 chapter).<ref>[[Adjutant General Order 2407-01]]</ref>		In TRMN, an army chapter is a regiment, or portrays part of a notional regiment if the chapter is less than regimental strength.
