Category: Bronze Star Medal

Categories: Personal Decorations, US Military Decorations


The Bronze Star Medal is the fourth-highest individual military award and the ninth-highest by order of precedence in the US Military. It may be awarded for acts of heroism, acts of merit, or meritorious service in a combat zone. When awarded for acts of heroism, the medal is awarded with the "V" device. The medal is sometimes referred to as the Bronze Star. Foreign soldiers, as well as officers from the other federal uniformed services are also eligible to receive the decoration when serving with or alongside a service branch of the United States Armed Forces. Those members who participated in the battle of the Bulge and received the Combat Infantry Badge were also awarded the Bronze Star.
