It has been my understanding that the D9 orgs work togehter so that there is consistency among our groups. Just as the NPC has the
Green book, which I've nerver seen btw, to give their recruitment consistency among the chapters, the D9 has decided that we will share a level of consistency. That is why we refer PNMs to the IHQ's website. All that the PNM needs to know is there. Any further steps are handled in person.
I also agree with what Little32 has said.
