   NEW SUBSECTION.  10A.  The commission shall issue a special hunting license to a disabled nonresident who has served in the armed forces of the United States on active federal service and was disabled during that veteran’s military service or who is serving in the armed forces of the United States on active federal service and has been disabled during military service, to enable the disabled person to participate in a hunt that is conducted by a nonprofit organization that conducts hunting experiences in this state for disabled veterans and disabled members of the armed forces serving on active federal service. The licenses shall be issued as follows:
   a.  The department shall prepare an application to be used by a person requesting a special license under this subsection.
