Officers hold what?

Officers hold what?

• A. Sovereign's Commission
• B. Royal Warrant
• C. Commission of the Court
• D. Rank of General

Answer: (A)

Officers are granted authority through a formal appointment called a commission, issued in the Sovereign’s name. This sovereign’s commission is the document that authorizes an individual to act as an officer, giving them the legal authority to command and perform their duties. It’s the instrument that proves and formalizes their role, not a rank or a separate royal order. A Royal Warrant serves other purposes and isn’t the standard appointment for officers, a Commission of the Court isn’t a recognized term here, and a General is a rank, not what an officer holds as the authority to serve.
