Honour had never gotten the unmistakable 'vibe' from Violetta of somepony who'd gone through the Academy, but then again, the lieutenant had never had to command them on a battlefield and thereby exposed the rigidity of her training. The Academy didn't really teach running a bunch of VIP quaternions from the Canterlot Palace Military Office. The work involved in getting a degree in history, though -- that might actually be good training for what the Lieutenant was doing now. Lots of reading, researching, and writing.
