Designates July sixteenth each year as "Atomic Veterans Day"

HB 2861 designates July 16th each year as "Atomic Veterans Day" in Missouri. The bill specifically honors veterans who were exposed to ionizing radiation during nuclear testing, served in military occupation forces near Hiroshima or Nagasaki before 1946, or were prisoners of war in those areas. It encourages Missouri citizens to participate in events recognizing these veterans' unique contributions. This is a commemorative designation with no new funding or policy changes.
