New Jersey Residents Receive State’s Top Military Award at Toms River

A special award ceremony will be held on March 8, 2001, at 10:30 a.m. at the Toms River National Guard Armory, 1200 Whitesville Road, Toms River, NJ. Major General Paul J. Glazar, The Adjutant General of New Jersey, will present the New Jersey Distinguished Service Medal, the state’s top military award, to 258 state residents who are combat veterans of World War II, Korea, Vietnam, or the Persian Gulf War. 

In order to be eligible for the Distinguished Service Medal, recipients must currently be a resident of New Jersey and also have been a resident of the state at the time they entered into military service; have been honorably discharged; and, must have received at least the equivalent of the Air Medal, Purple Heart, or Bronze Star or proof of having served in combat while on active duty during wartime. Those recipients whose service was recognized by the award of the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Air Medal or equivalent medal will receive a NJ Distinguished Service Medal with an oak leaf cluster. The DSM can be awarded posthumously to the next-of-kin of a veteran who meets the criteria.

The NJ DSM was originally issued in 1858 for those who had distinguished themselves in the New Jersey Militia, but was infrequently used until re-authorized by Governor Kean in 1988.

After the Spanish American War, the Mexican Border Expedition and again after World War I, the State of New Jersey minted special medals for returning NJ veterans to honor their service. After WWII, Korea, Vietnam and subsequent combat actions no such medal was available. The State of New Jersey was looking for an appropriate way to honor all of these returning combat veterans and acknowledge the debt the state owed them for their service. The NJ DSM was then authorized for that purpose. It is New Jersey’s highest military award. 

Since its re-authorization in 1988, about 3200 medals have been awarded to combat veterans from New Jersey. 

Anyone interested in applying for the New Jersey Distinguished Service Medal should send a written request together with copies of all pertinent information, e.g. DD 214 (discharge document), award citation, honorable discharge, etc. to:

NJDMAVA
ATTN: CIO-GS-PA
P.O. Box 340
Trenton, New Jersey 08625-0340

Be sure to include full name, home address and daytime telephone number. 

The list of recipients at the Toms River Armory is as follows:

LEGEND: (WAR ) I=WWI, II=WWII, K=Korea, V=Vietnam, DS= Desert Storm, P=Panama

L=Lebanon, G=Grenada
