The Order of Merit ( ) is a dynastic order recognising distinguished service in the armed forces, science, art, literature, or for the promotion of culture. Established in 1902 by King Edward VII, admission into the order remains the personal gift of its Sovereign, the reigning monarch of the Commonwealth realms, and is limited to 24 living recipients at one time from these countries plus a limited number of honorary members. While all members receive the ability to use the post-nominal letters OM and a medallion for life, the Order of Merit's precedence amongst other honours differs between Commonwealth realms.

Their age and experiences are far apart, but Olympic and world shotput champion Valerie Vili and Major Hone Waititi, the only surviving company commander of the 28th Maori Battalion, have one thing in common - both brought honour to their country. Yesterday, their country honoured them as they joined business, sport, medical, arts and community leaders at an investiture ceremony in Auckland. Some of the country's top business, sports, medical, arts and community leaders have been honoured at a ceremony in Auckland. The first batch of up to 77 people to receive the country's top honours were recognised at an investiture ceremony at Government House yesterday. Among them were top businessman Tony Gibbs and actress Mabel Wharekawa-Burt. Vili, made an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit for her services to athletics, said the day had been one of reflection. "When I first got asked [to accept the award], I was just thinking about doing this in the last 10 years - it's been a massive ride." Being honoured alongside some of the country's top people was another reason to celebrate. "It's pretty amazing to be sitting right next to them. I'm very happy, very honoured. It goes to show how much your country appreciates you." Family and friends joined the 18 people honoured at yesterday's ceremony. Governor-General Sir Anand Satyanand paid tribute to each of them, calling for New Zealanders to use their success as an inspiration to do the same. "If we, other New Zealanders, can <b>...</b>
