- About this plate
- NATIONAL GUARD PLATES. The second of Missouri's two statutory legend displacements, given its own entry for the same §2.3 reason as the disabled-veteran plate above and recorded separately because the statute names the two independently and attaches them to different eligibility groups. Together these two are the whole of Missouri's legislated legend taxonomy, everything else in the Missouri catalogue is a design program under the specialty index below, not a statutory legend.
