§ 3a:6-26.

When any minor, who is of such age that the consent of his parent or guardian is necessary

to enable him to enlist in the armed forces of the United States, desires to enlist

in the armed forces of the United States and has no parent or guardian entitled to

his custody and control available to sign the written consent required for such enlistment,

letters of special guardianship may be granted by the surrogate's court of the county

in which the minor resides, or the Superior Court, empowering the special guardian

to give his written consent to such enlistment but limiting his authority and duty

to that purpose. The guardian shall give such consent only if he deems the enlistment advisable. No bond shall be required from such guardian, and no fee or charge shall be collected

by the clerk of the Superior Court or by the surrogate in connection with the action

for the appointment of the guardian.
