This bill would award a single Congressional Gold Medal, on behalf of Congress, to honor the Medevac Marines and Navy Corpsmen of the Vietnam War as a group. The Secretary of the Treasury would design and strike the medal after consulting with the Secretary of Defense. After it is awarded, the medal would go to the National Museum of the United States Navy for display and research. The Treasury could also make and sell bronze copies at a price that covers their cost, with costs and sale proceeds handled through the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund.
