Promote awareness of New Mexicans serving in Iraq and Afghanistan

John M. Garcia, Secretary, New Mexico Department of Veterans Services, is asking New Mexicans to honor the men and women who serve our country and order a Patriot Plate. The Patriot license plate is available to all New Mexico vehicle owners.

In 2006 the New Mexico Department of Veterans Services introduced an official license plate to honor all veterans. The plate especially honors those who have served since the events of September 11th, 2001 and pays tribute to the heroism, selflessness, compassion and courage of our active duty service members and veterans. To date, over 800 New Mexico vehicle owners have ordered the Patriot Plate.
