ANSTHRLD - What do we need to know?

[Donald Riney]

Would there be any problem with just calling them "Pursuivants". Skipping 
the "extraordinary" or "at large" altogether? After all branch officers will 
be identified by their branch name or branch heraldic title. For example 
Lindenwood Pursuivant or Nautilus Pursuivant, where as one not attached to a 
group could just be a pursuivant.
