Pennsylvania Offers New License Plate Honoring PA National Guard

Pennsylvania Offers New License Plate Honoring PA National Guard

2/28/2018-KING OF PRUSSIA

Members of the Pennsylvania National Guard have a new way to proudly show
their
service through the display of a military license plate announced today by
the
Wolf Administration.

"Our Citizen Soldiers have served our commonwealth and the nation with
distinction in both domestic and international arenas," said Governor Tom
Wolf.
"I take pride in sharing the news that their service will be recognized in
this
way."

The new plates feature the standard Pennsylvania license plate colors of
blue,
white, and yellow along with a National Guard-approved emblem on the
left-hand
side of the plate. Pennsylvania is printed at the top of the plate, while
PA
National Guard is printed at the bottom. This plate may only be used on
passenger vehicles and trucks with a registered gross weight of not more
than
14,000 pounds.

"Our members of the National Guard are justifiably proud of their service
to
our state and nation," said PennDOT Secretary Leslie S. Richards. "These
new
registration plates give them a way to publicly show that pride daily."

Members of the National Guard interested in applying for one of these
plates
must complete Form MV-150AD, "Application for Members of U.S. Military
Registration Plate." The form requires the service member to certify their
status as a member of the Pennsylvania National Guard.

"This new plate is an ideal way for our service members to publicly
showcase
their membership in the National Guard. We want to thank our fellow state
agency for providing this service to our National Guard members," said Maj.

Gen. Tony Carrelli, Pennsylvania's adjutant general and head of the
Pennsylvania Department of Military and Veterans Affairs.

The addition of a registration plate recognizing members of the PA National

Guard completes an assortment of plates available to Pennsylvania residents

with ties to all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. Additional information
and
images of a variety of military license plates are available at
www.dmv.pa.gov
via the U.S. Military Veteran Registration Plates Fact Sheet link under the

Resources section of Military Personnel/Veterans Information Center. The
fee
for the plate is $21.
