The defender general
The defender general, I just learned, is not a general at the Defense Department (okay, I didn't think that would be it)—that's the title of the head public defender in Vermont, presumably by analogy to attorney general. Those zany East Coasters, with their prothonotaries and their prochein amies and their defender generals.
