Is there a list of Bronze Star recipients from World War 2?

As far as I know, there is no list for recipients of the Bronze Star Medal from WWII. The reason for this is, unlike higher awards that are awarded strictly for combat actions (Medal of Honor, Distinguished Service Cross, Distinguished Service Medal- which have lists of recipients) the Bronze Star Medal may be awarded also for non-combat reasons. Because of this, the list would be extraordinarily long, particularly for a period of war.

How many bronze starts medals went to soldiers from Puerto Ricoduring the Vietnam war?

About 345 men from Puerto Rico died in the Viet War. They weren't all soldiers, some were US Marines, Airmen and Sailors. Often times those men killed in action were awarded the Bronze Star medal. A photo of their (military issue) headstone will state what medal was issued (posthumously). The US military lists MOH recipients but not normally lesser awards.

How many Silver Stars were awarded in Vietnam War?

Use caution on those medals. The Bronze Star could also be awarded for Meritorious Achievement. If the Bronze Star has a "V" device attached to the ribbon portion, then the award is for VALOR (Bravery). See website: Statistics About the Vietnam War


Is it true that all World War 2 recipeints of the combat infantrymans badge were awarded the bronze star?

Yes. Recipients of the CIB were decided to be eligible for a Bronze Star Medal a couple of years after the war. By that time most of the men were discharged from the service, and may never have been aware of this decision, or never bothered to apply for it. The Bronze Star could be awarded for valor, or for "meritorious service". If the award was for valor the Medal came with bronze "V devices", shaped like the letter "V" to be worn on the ribbons for the medal - a little one for the chest ribbon and a larger one for the ribbon of the actual medal. The Bronze Stars given to all recipients of the Combat Infantryman's Badge were for "meritorious service", so, no "V devices".
