Gold's Dragoons

Gold’s Dragoons continues the work of the late Col. Ken Powers to support an annual dinner, run in the style of a British officers' mess, in memory of a British colonial militia unit raised in Fairfield, Connecticut, in 1660 and a successor cavalry unit of the same name raised in 1932, from the members of the Fairfield County Hunt Club. 

The aim of the Gold's Dragoons web site is to help perpetuate the memory of Gold’s Dragoons and its members, past and present, who have joined together over the years to celebrate the spirit of military service in the United States and the British Commonwealth.

Gold's Dragoons, of which AFF President and CEO Stephen Cain is a member, specifically supports the Foundation in its endeavours.
