The Etoile (=star) is part of the 1st and 2nd class. In year 307 special insignia for women 6) were added, to avoid having them to have to wear the neck ribbon of the ranks of 2) grand-officer or 3) commander. In a wider perspective, the introduction of special insignia for women signals the clear commitment of the armed forces to attract more women to serve in the Royal Aethelnian Army , Royal Aethelnian Air Force and Royal Aethelnian Navy.
