The Chinese American WWII Recognition Project has re-opened the registration process to accept new applications for consideration to receive the U.S. Mint replica of the Chinese American Veterans of WWII Congressional Gold Medal. The application period will only be open from December 7, 2023 to January 11, 2024. No applications will be accepted after January 11, 2024, 5:00 pm PST.
Due to the generosity of prior recipients who donated their Medals back to the Project and several donors, a limited number of Medals are available for this FINAL open application period. Applications for consideration are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, using date/time stamp of the data management software. Since it is possible that due to the limited availability of Medal replicas, some approved applicants may not be presented during this final open period; however, the names of the approved Veterans will be listed on the CAWW2 Veterans website in their branch of service.
By applying, all applicants acknowledge the importance of accepting this Medal from one of many distinguished U.S. Army Generals and U.S. Navy Admirals at this once-in-a-lifetime Congressional Gold Medal ceremony to be held at the National WWII Museum and/or the Higgins Hotel in New Orleans on March 8-9, 2024.
For their uncommon valor and patriotism during their military service, it is most appropriate that the applicant who represents the Veteran (if deceased or unable to attend) shall understand the pride and dignity of this recognition on his/her behalf as it is presented to them by these dedicated, high-ranking officers.
