Hey GPhiBLtColonel, I'm not a DZ, but their 1982 history says the Crown Princess was initiated in 1939 when she and the Crown Prince were guests at the U. of North Dakota on their tour of the western USA -- and stayed at the DZ house there (Upsilon chapter). The national president of DZ conducted the initiation. So apparently it was an AI of sorts. They do have a small black and white pic of the Prince and Princess on the chapter house steps; she is wearing an elaborate "traditional"-looking Norwegian-style highly ornamented outfit -- not really what the GC rush threads would be likely to recommend, even for Preference. The Prince is in black tie. No other details, sorry.
