United States Marine Corps, active duty combat, special license plate authorized.

301.3085. Any person who has participated in active duty combat action

while serving in the United States Marine Corps or the United States Navy may

apply for special motor vehicle license plates for any vehicle such person

owns, either solely or jointly, other than an apportioned motor vehicle

licensed in excess of eighteen thousand pounds gross weight. Any such person

shall make application for the special license plates on a form provided by

the director of revenue and furnish such proof as a recipient of the combat

infantry badge as the director may require. The director shall then issue

license plates bearing the words "COMBAT ACTION RIBBON" in place of the words

"SHOW-ME STATE" in a form prescribed by the director, except that such license

plates shall be made with fully reflective material, shall have a white

background with a blue and red configuration at the discretion of the

director, shall be clearly visible at night, and shall be aesthetically

attractive, as prescribed by section 301.130. Such plates shall also bear an

image of a blue, yellow, and red ribbon. There shall be an additional fee

charged for each set of special combat action ribbon license plates issued

equal to the fee charged for personalized license plates in section 301.144.

There shall be no limit on the number of license plates any person qualified

under this section may obtain so long as each set of license plates issued

under this section is issued for vehicles owned solely or jointly by such

person. License plates issued pursuant to the provisions of this section

shall not be transferable to any other person except that any registered

co-owner of the motor vehicle shall be entitled to operate the motor vehicle

with such plates for the duration of the year licensed in the event of the

death of the qualified person.
