Creates New Jersey Cold War medal.
This bill creates a commemorative Cold War medal to honor New Jersey veterans who served honorably during the Cold War period (September 2, 1945-December 26, 1991). It directly affects eligible veterans who are current or former New Jersey residents with at least 180 days of service in the military or organized militia during that time. The medal will be awarded by the Governor based on eligibility determined by the Adjutant General, with replacement medals available for lost or damaged medals. A dedicated fund in the Treasury will cover the medal's design, manufacture, and distribution.
