Yes, the award is also given for Merit which is basically doing an outstanding job in your duties. The bronze star is also given with a "V device" for Valor to distinguish it as being awarded for that reason. Awards like the Silver Star, Navy Cross, Distinguished Service Cross and other high ones are awarded strictly for Valor and do not need a V device attached. I have an Army Commendation Medal with a V device but also got 2 ARCOM's that same deployment strictly for Merit as a Service award.
