An ancient and formerly semi secret group of folks mainly associated by eating and drinking with a heavy emphasis on drinking. However, there is a clause in the deal where you can be obligated to serve the state if called. If you were a land guy you were a colonel and if you were a water person you were made an admiral.

Do you still have the framed thing signed by the gov? Which one was it?

He told me the other night that he still gets stuff in the mail from the Kentucky Colonels.

Pretty sure they still do the breakfast for the Derby and still a good thing to go to. Not sure where they hold it now but you should go at least once.
