The Degree of Chevalier is the highest honor that an active DeMolay can receive. This honor also may be granted to a Senior DeMolay. The Degree is a citation for outstanding and marked DeMolay activity and labor. The nominee must be a minimum of 17 years of age on January 15th of the year nominated, and have been a member in good standing for at least two years as of that date. The degree cannot be applied for, and the nomination is made without the knowledge of the DeMolay to be honored. The unanimous vote of the ISC at its regular Session is required to elect a nominee. Advisory Councils make recommendations to the Missouri Executive Officer of the jurisdiction. Nomination forms are available from the Missouri Executive Officer. The nominations must be received by the Missouri Executive Officers deadline. The investiture ceremony must take place within one year from the date of election.

An Advisor who wears the Cross of Honor has received a distinctive honor that can only be given by the International Supreme Council to a member of an Advisory Council or a personal representative of an Executive Officer. It denotes three or more years of conspicuous meritorious service to a Chapter or jurisdiction, and exceptionally outstanding efforts on behalf of DeMolay. Since females may serve on an Executive Officers staff, this is the only DeMolay honor, which may be granted to a woman.

The Legion of Honor is the highest Honor conferred by the ISC. It's conferred on a Senior DeMolay for outstanding leadership in some field of endeavor or for success in fraternal life, including adult service to DeMolay. Nominees must be over 25 years of age before January 15. No one may apply for this distinction, and a nominee, or the membership of a Chapter must have no knowledge of the recommendation by the Advisory Council. Failure to observe secrecy in making this nomination subjects the nominee to the penalty of not being considered. Nomination forms are available from the Executive Officer or his representative. If approved by the Executive Officer, the nomination will be referred to the ISC, whose unanimous vote is required to receive this honor.

The ISC may confer this honor on a Master Mason over 30 years of age who has performed unusual and meritorious service on behalf of DeMolay, or who has evidenced a spirit of cooperation and appreciation for the Order of DeMolay. He does not have to be a Senior DeMolay. No one may apply for the distinction. Nominations for honorary Legion of Honor are handled in the same manner as Legion of Honor nominations.
