I started a petition on the White House petition site We The People. Please sign it here Cold War Medal Petition
We need to have 5000 signatures by Oct 22. Please share this with everyone you know and ask them to
sign this petition. Remember to have your spouse/partner and children sign it.
You will have to start an account and log in but it is quick and easy. Please help us in our quest. We have waited too long.
2011 is the 20th anniversary of the end of the Cold War. Let this be the year to remember, recognize and
honor our veterans.
I
am sure someone will mention the Cold War Certificate. You must know
that the certificate makes no mention of military service, anyone who
worked for the government in any manner is eligible. In the 13 years the
certificate has been in existence only about 3.5 million have applied
for it.
And, you can not pin a certificate to your chest.

"We Remember"

"And so the greatest of American triumphs... became a peculiarly joyless victory. We had won the Cold War, but there would be no parades."
-- Robert M. Gates, 1996
