As we near Veterans Day, consider placing an application into this state department to get an honor due to you or a loved one–a medal for your military service.

A Medal Ceremony for all area veterans, sponsored by American Legion Post 59, Morristown, is on Tuesday, December 2, 2025 at the VFW Post 3401 in Morris Plains (45 Tabor Road) beginning at 11 AM.

See the instructions on how to apply.  Applications must be received by November 1, 2025 to take part in this event.

The New Jersey Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMAVA) is staffed to support veterans and their families. Take some time to explore the breadth of opportunities available through their services and described on their website.
