No. Neither is there any overall list of all who were awarded the Medal. Division commanders had the authority to award the Silver Star; higher awards had to be approved by higher authority. Many divisions and some regiments published unit histories immediately after the war, and these often include lists of unit members who were decorated. There were a lot of smaller "independent" battalions of various types which were not a part of any larger formation, and these, being so small, usually did not publish a history. Many times these independent battalions were attached, more or less permanently, to a particular division, and MIGHT be included in that division's history, if it published one. All the tank battalions (numbered in the 700s), all the tank destroyer battalions, all the anti-aircraft artillery were independent battalions. There were three or four independent battalions of combat engineers who turned in heroic performances during the Bulge.
