The World War II Victory Medal is a service medal of the United States military which was established by an Act of Congress on 6 July 1945 (Public Law 135, 79th Congress) and promulgated by Section V, War Department Bulletin 12, 1945.

Unlike the World War I medal, clasps were not issued for the World War II Victory Medal. This was because theater medals were awarded instead
