Creates New Jersey Cold War medal.

This bill creates a New Jersey Cold War medal to honor veterans who served honorably during the Cold War period (September 2, 1945-December 26, 1991). It directly affects New Jersey residents or former residents who completed at least 180 days of service in the military or organized militia during that time and were honorably discharged. The medal will be awarded by the Governor upon application to the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, which requires proof of service (like a DD-214 form) and verifies eligibility. A special fund will cover the medal’s design, manufacturing, and distribution.
