Letters from Colonel Wright
Kentucky Colonel is the highest title of honor bestowed by the U.S. state of Kentucky. It is the best-known colonelcy in the United States. A Kentucky Colonel Commission, the certificate, is awarded in the name of the Commonwealth by the governor of Kentucky to individuals with "Honorable" titular style recognition preceding the names of civilians aged 18 or over, for noteworthy accomplishments, contributions to civil society, remarkable deeds, or outstanding service to the community, state, or nation. The governor bestows the honorable title with a colonelcy commission, by issuance of letters patent.
