Bill overview
This bill awards a Congressional Gold Medal to the individuals and communities that supported the North Platte Canteen during World War II. The North Platte Canteen, a volunteer-run effort in Nebraska, provided food and entertainment to approximately 6 million U.S. troops traveling across the country from 1941 to 1946. The bill recognizes the significant contributions of over 55,000 volunteers and the financial support provided by local communities. The gold medal will be presented to the Lincoln County Historical Museum for display.
