Yes, if a soldier is awarded a medal long after an event, it means they have only just been recognized for the award, or they are making up for an award that should have been presented to them long ago.

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.
