The Bronze Star Medal could be awarded for either "meritorious service" or for "valor". If the award was for valor, the Medal was awarded with a bronze "V device" to be worn on the ribbon of the Medal. After the war was over the Army decided that every WWII veteran was entitled to the Bronze Star Medal, but the award was for "meritorious service", not "valor", so no "V device".

The difference between silver and bronze small stars on ribbons typically signifies varying levels of achievement or recognition. In many military or award contexts, a silver star generally indicates a higher level of accomplishment than a bronze star. For example, in the U.S. military, a silver star might represent a second award of a particular honor, while a bronze star would denote the first. These distinctions help to convey the degree of merit associated with each award.
