Commemorates 71st anniversary of armistice that ended Korean War.
AJR 66 is a symbolic resolution commemorating the 70th anniversary of the July 27, 1953, armistice ending the Korean War. It honors New Jersey's 191,000 veterans who served and 836 who died during the conflict, acknowledging the war as the "forgotten war" often overlooked compared to other conflicts. The resolution directs the state to formally recognize this anniversary and send copies to New Jersey Korean War veteran associations. As a commemorative measure with no binding policy changes, it serves solely to honor historical sacrifice.
