The POW-MIA specialty plate started as an idea of former Indiana Rolling Thunder President, Jon Brinkley.   Brinkley wanted to find a way to raise awareness for those left behind in all wars and conflicts, and at the same time raise funds for struggling military families.

The dream came to pass in May 2009 when the plate was first announced at the  North Side Harley Davidson  store on 96th street with Mayor Greg Ballard, State Senators Tom Wyss and Jim Merritt, Commissioner of the  Indiana Bureau of Motor VehiclesAndy Miller, and Tom Applegate, Director of the  Indiana Office of Veterans Affairs  in attendance.

Rolling Thunder’s application was one of many received and reviewed. The plate was accepted, in part, due to an uncommon level of distinction that sets the organization and its purpose for the plate apart from others.
 
There are several military specialty plates, but this one is different in several ways.

There is no application process, it is available to anyone with a valid registration, and it directly offers support to veterans in need.

The cost of the POW-MIA license plate includes vehicle registration fees and taxes, a group fee of $25, and an administrative fee of $15.

Twenty-five dollars will go to the Veterans Assistance Trust Fund.

Plates are available for cars, trucks (Up to 11,000 lbs), and motorcycles. Requests can be made for a special numbered POW-MIA plate.

Commissioner of the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles, Andy Miller, summed up the purpose and motivation behind this plate saying, As motorists everywhere see this Indiana license plate, I sincerely hope that they will remember these heroes.
