AR 206 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges Congress to issue Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal, or similar recognition, to United States troops who served in Honduras from 1981 to 1992.

This New Jersey Assembly Resolution (AR 206) urges Congress to award the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal (or equivalent recognition) to U.S. military personnel who served in Honduras between 1981 and 1992. It directly affects veterans of that specific deployment period, citing their service in a hostile environment involving combat support, training, and civil action, with some troops facing hostile fire and casualties. The resolution requests Congress issue the medal to honor their service and sacrifices, including those who received Purple Hearts or lost their lives. As a symbolic resolution, it has no legal force but formally asks Congress to recognize these veterans' contributions.
