The Order of the Star Kingdom was first awarded 3 August 2013 at [[Shore Leave 35]] in Hunt Valley, MD.  At the end of the TRMN Annual General Meeting, an investiture ceremony was held in which [[David Weber]] and [[Martin Lessem]] were each in turn invested with a blue velvet mantle embroidered with the star of the order and then were dubbed with a sword.  The sword used was of [[Grayson]] design and had been custom made for presentation to Weber.  [[Lady]] Sharon Rice-Weber, then-Duchess of Leutzen Vale, stood in for the sovereign and dubbed David Weber.  David Weber then dubbed Lessem.
