The Knight Templar Cross of Honor is awarded to those Knights who have rendered exception and meritorious service to the Order, far beyond the call of duty, and beyond the service usually expected of an officer or member. No present or past elected Grand Officer of a Grand Commandery shall be eligible for the award. This is the highest honor a Grand Commandery can bestow on a Sir Knight.
