Go to the National Archives web site and read the instructions on the requirements to obtain military records: http://www.archives.gov/veterans/ They are pretty efficient and can send copies in a few weeks.

How can you find bronze star citation?
To find a Bronze Star citation, you can typically request it through the National Archives or the branch of the military in which the medal was awarded. You can submit a request for military records, including citations, through the appropriate channels.
Was Howard Reher awarded the Bronze Star during World War 2?
I can not find any list of WW2 bronze star reference. It may be possible to request his service record from the US Department of Defence. The form you would need to ask for is the DD-214which have been used since 1941.
How do you find out what your father received his bronze stars for?
If he's alive, go through his personal papers. The Bronze Star Medal is awarded with a Citation explaining the circumstances. If your dad is dead, find a copy of his Discharge. There is a section on there for awards and decorations. If the Bronze Star is listed there, take the discharge and proof of your deceased kinship to a Veteran Service Officer at any US Federal Building (some county officers have them too) and they will help you.
Is there a list of medal winners by medal category such as Silver Star winners Bronze Star winners etc?
For US Medals at the very top of the "Pyramid of Honor" (The highest US medals awarded) lists do exist. The Medal of Honor, the highest medal awarded, has numerous lists that can be checked, as do the next highest, the Distinguished Service Cross. There are monthly payments made for life for the medal, so any number of sources would also provide a verification list. Also, a DD-214 (Discharge Certificate) would list all medals and awards received by a service member, but would NOT tell you what the medal was awarded for; this would be found on the accompanying certificate with the medal.
How may you find a bronze star receipent of the gulf war?

Can you find the reason for your dad receiving the bronze star?
If you look through your dad's personal papers, an award of the Bronze Star Medal would have been accompanied by a Citation Certificate. If you can't find it, look at his discharge. There is a section there saying Awards and Decorations. If Bronze Star is there, take that, along with your dad (or you- with proof of your kinship), to a Veteran Service Officer at a federal building (some county offices have them,too) and they will help you.

How can I find out if my brother was awarded a Silver Star while serving in Viet Nam? There is no definitive list of silver star recipients. There are lists available if you do an internet search, but they are not complete or verified. If you want to find information on medals or awards given to a particular service member, you can request those records through the National Archives if you are the service member or a next of kin. Here is a link. http://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records/get-service-records.html

There is no complete or comprehensive listing of US medals below the Congressional Medal of Honor and the Marine Corps Brevet Medal. Your father's name is not likely to appear on any list you will find on the internet unless he put it there.
