''Prafáti Princeps Glássariaei'' '''Guillaume Maria d'Agostino''' <small>[[Order of Joanus|CC]] [[Imperial Order of the Holy Cross|MHC]] [[Order of the Shield|OC]]</small> (born 11 February, 1966) is the commandant of the [[New Yustona|New Yustonan]] [[Royal and Confederate Army (New Yustona)|Royal and Confederate Army]], having been designated as such on the creation of the [[New Yustona|New Yustonan]] [[Royal and Confederate Army (New Yustona)|Royal and Confederate Army]] on September 1st, 2021, by [[LUDC]] leadership at the recommendation of [[Phillip de Stonne]], [[Chief of Defence (Yonderre)|Chief of Defence]] of the [[Yonderian Defence Force]]. 
 
Having previously held commands in the [[Yonderian Defence Force|YDF]] [[Training Command (Yonderre)|Training Command]], d'Agostino was perceived as an ideal candidate to organize and oversee the training and subsequent combat actions of the fledgling Royal and Confederate Army. d'Agostino was granted administrative furlough from the YDF to travel to [[New Yustona]] in early August of 2021 alongside a number of other YDF volunteers, who were then sworn in on September 1st, 2021. Modelled largely on the YDF and under d'Agostino's supervision, the Royal and Confederate Army has been centralized from its many local militias into a more modern army, although it still lacks the heavy equipment to fight offensive wars independently.

==Military career==
Finishing his basic training in 1984, he was assigned to the [[1st Infantry Division (Yonderre)|1st Infantry Division]] as an enlisted rifleman. d'Agostino was soon picked out for his leadership potential and promoted to Sergeant after a brief training stint in 1985. d'Agostino worked his way up to commissioned officer in 1988 when he attained the rank of Lieutenant and attended the [[Yonderian Command and Staff College]] between 1989-1990, graduating with a promotion to Captain. d'Agostino then transferred from the 1st Infantry Division to [[Training Command (Yonderre)|Training Command]], initially as commandant of the relatively modest Saneurst Training Camp, a command he held until 1995 when he transferred to the larger Gouvier Training Camp in [[Vollardie]], again as commandant. With his promotion to Lieutenant Colonel in 2000, d'Agostino transferred to Training Command Staff, Doctrinal Department, where he helped form future training regimes for the YDF.


The '''Most Distinguished Imperial Order of the Holy Cross''' is a [[Holy Levantine Empire|Levantine Imperial]] [[Levantine Catholic Church|Catholic]] order of chivalry, rewarding contributions advancement of the cause of the Levantine Union and the Levantine Catholic Church. The Order was established by Emperor Conchobar III in 1555 as a reward for those giving service to faith and Empire during the [[Great Confessional War]]. Like some other institutions of the Holy Levantine Empire, the Order continued to exist past the [[Treaty of Corcra]], and it exists today in the stewardship of the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]], who also holds the title of [[Emperor of the Levantines]]. Since the end of the [[Great War]], membership in the Order has been granted for those who perform an act of service for the [[Levantine Union]], recognizing it as a successor of the Empire.
In 2010 d'Agostino was once more given command of a Training Camp, this time in [[Sainte-Catherine]]. d'Agostino was awarded the [[Order of the Shield|Cross of the Order of the Shield]] in 2010 for his exemplary leadership and work in Training Command. In 2019, co-inciding with his promotion to Colonel General, d'Agostino was awarded the [[Order of Joanus|Knight's Cross of the Order of Joanus]], Yonderre's highest award for leadership. Because of his lengthy service with Training Command, d'Agostino was perceived as an ideal candidate to organize and oversee the training and subsequent combat actions of the fledgling Royal and Confederate Army of [[New Yustona]]. d'Agostino was granted administrative furlough from the YDF to travel to [[New Yustona]] in early August of 2021 alongside a number of other YDF volunteers, who were then sworn in on September 1st, 2021.  


Modelled largely on the YDF and working under d'Agostino's keen supervision, the Royal and Confederate Army has been largely centralized from its many local militias into a more modern army, although it still lacks the heavy equipment and numbers to fight offensive wars independently. d'Agostino has established a body akin to the Yonderian [[General Staff (Yonderre)|General Staff]], staffed mainly by Yonderian and other [[LUDC]] officers, whose top ranks are filled by officers handpicked by d'Agostino chiefly from the YDF.

Prafáti Princeps Glássariaei Guillaume Maria d'Agostino CC MHC OC (born 11 February, 1966) is the commandant of the New Yustonan Royal and Confederate Army, having been designated as such on the creation of the New Yustonan Royal and Confederate Army on September 1st, 2021, by LUDC leadership at the recommendation of Phillip de Stonne, Chief of Defence of the Yonderian Defence Force.

Having previously held commands in the YDF Training Command, d'Agostino was perceived as an ideal candidate to organize and oversee the training and subsequent combat actions of the fledgling Royal and Confederate Army. d'Agostino was granted administrative furlough from the YDF to travel to New Yustona in early August of 2021 alongside a number of other YDF volunteers, who were then sworn in on September 1st, 2021. Modelled largely on the YDF and under d'Agostino's supervision, the Royal and Confederate Army has been centralized from its many local militias into a more modern army, although it still lacks the heavy equipment to fight offensive wars independently.

Early life

Guillaume Maria d'Agostino was born in Toubourg, Yonderre, on the 11th of February, 1966, as the oldest of four children to mason Nestor d'Agostino and his wife Agathe (née Gabron), a seamstress. The d'Agostino family lived in a middle class neighbourhood on the outskirts of Toubourg and are distantly descended from the House of d'Agostino, one of Yonderre's original noble houses. Guillaume knew from a young age that he wanted to be a career soldier and volunteered for military service when he reached 18 years of age.

Military career

Finishing his basic training in 1984, he was assigned to the 1st Infantry Division as an enlisted rifleman. d'Agostino was soon picked out for his leadership potential and promoted to Sergeant after a brief training stint in 1985. d'Agostino worked his way up to commissioned officer in 1988 when he attained the rank of Lieutenant and attended the Yonderian Command and Staff College between 1989-1990, graduating with a promotion to Captain. d'Agostino then transferred from the 1st Infantry Division to Training Command, initially as commandant of the relatively modest Saneurst Training Camp, a command he held until 1995 when he transferred to the larger Gouvier Training Camp in Vollardie, again as commandant. With his promotion to Lieutenant Colonel in 2000, d'Agostino transferred to Training Command Staff, Doctrinal Department, where he helped form future training regimes for the YDF.

In 2010 d'Agostino was once more given command of a Training Camp, this time in Sainte-Catherine. d'Agostino was awarded the Cross of the Order of the Shield in 2010 for his exemplary leadership and work in Training Command. In 2019, co-inciding with his promotion to Colonel General, d'Agostino was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of Joanus, Yonderre's highest award for leadership. Because of his lengthy service with Training Command, d'Agostino was perceived as an ideal candidate to organize and oversee the training and subsequent combat actions of the fledgling Royal and Confederate Army of New Yustona. d'Agostino was granted administrative furlough from the YDF to travel to New Yustona in early August of 2021 alongside a number of other YDF volunteers, who were then sworn in on September 1st, 2021.

Modelled largely on the YDF and working under d'Agostino's keen supervision, the Royal and Confederate Army has been largely centralized from its many local militias into a more modern army, although it still lacks the heavy equipment and numbers to fight offensive wars independently. d'Agostino has established a body akin to the Yonderian General Staff, staffed mainly by Yonderian and other LUDC officers, whose top ranks are filled by officers handpicked by d'Agostino chiefly from the YDF.
