The original Triad members remain in the AQSG today as the traditional founding body more than anything else. While only one member of the original Triad continues to perform all of their previous duties, the original TRIAD rank and honors bestowed remain permanently theirs as a reward and special tribute to their hard work and dedication to this group during the beginning years of the AQSG and the work so performed by these three officers.
For their years of dedication, these original TRIAD Admirals have been bestowed a special PIP insignia, where their board is red and off-white in color with their highest rank achieved.
