"LEATHERNECK"
New Jersey Organizational License Plates









The following are the instructions that are required to be completed when applying
for special Marine Corps League License Plates:

1.    You must belong to a Marine Corps League Detachment within the State of New Jersey
OR be a Life Member at Large with the Leaguers name and address within the state of New
Jersey. You can belong to a Marine Corps League Detachment in another state, but
registration of vehicle must be in the Leaguers name and show that the vehicle is registered
with the Motor Vehicle Commission.

2.    All vehicles must be registered in the Marine Corps League Member’s Name.  You can
apply for more than one set of plates as long as the vehicle is registered in the Member’s
name.  

3.    Fill out the organization special plate application front and back. Enclose a photocopy
your Vehicle Registration and your National MCL Membership I.D. Card along with your check
and application.  Paperwork cannot be submitted to NJ Motor Vehicle Commission if it is not
complete as per instructions.

4.    Make $35.00 checks payable to:
MCL – Dept of NJ  (Marine Corps League – Department of New Jersey).  
Each set of plates cost $35.00. Keep this in mine if ordering more than one set.  

5.    Mail to:
Marine David Keene
P.O. Box 191
Tuckahoe, NJ 08250-0191

(Enclose: Application, Check, copy of Membership Card and copy of Vehicle Registration)  

If you have any questions please feel free to call me at 609-484-9253
between the hours of 0900 to 1900.  Please be considerate about the calling times.  
I do have an answering machine on at all times if I am not home.

NOTE:  If you have been convicted of DWI or RECKLESS DRIVING in the State of New Jersey
in the last 10 years, your application will be DENIED by the NJ MVC.       
MVC does check the records on all requests for plates!

You must continue to renew your membership in the Marine Corps League Detachment each
year to retain your plates.  

You may obtain replacement plates at a cost of $11.00 from NJ MVC.
Turn your old BLUE Plates into new ones and keep your same old plate number.  
This is between a member and NJ MVC.
The License Plate Chairman is NOT involved and forms are available at any NJ MVC Agency.

Personalize your MCL Plates with up to 5 spaces (letters or numbers).  Once you have MCL
plates in your possession, apply with the NJ MVC for personalized MCL Plates at a cost of
$50.00.   This is between a member and NJ MVC.  The License Plate Chairman is NOT involved
and forms are available at any NJ MVC Agency.  Make sure you tell them you already have
MCL
“Leatherneck” Plates and you want Personalized “Leatherneck” Plates.   I would include a
note stapled to MVC Personalized Plate Application so there are no mistakes.

Please be aware that your MCL Plates may take up to two months to get to the member.  
Motor Vehicle Commission has total control over the shipment of all plates.  Please provide all
the necessary paperwork and the process will move as fast as possible.
