HB 213 -- World War II and Korean War Veterans' Medallion Program

Sponsor:  Deeken

Currently, any World War II veteran who wants to receive a
medallion, medal, and certificate of appreciation must have been
a Missouri resident before August 28, 2000, and must have made
application for the medals prior to July 1, 2004.  Veterans of
the Korean War who want to receive the medallion, medal, and
certificate of appreciation must have been Missouri residents
before August 28, 2003, and must have made application for the
medals prior to January 1, 2005.

This bill allows any Missouri resident who is a veteran of either
World War II or the Korean War to receive the medals of
appreciation regardless of the date on which he or she moved to
Missouri and removes the application deadlines.  The medallions,
medals, and certificates will be awarded until the supply is
exhausted.  When there are fewer than 100 medallions, medals, and
certificates, the Adjutant General must notify the General
Assembly.
