I have never heard of a Distinguished Conduct Star Medal.
During WW2, the Army issued these medals (and many other possibilities)
Good Conduct Medal - given for 12 months good conduct
Distinguished Service Medal
Distinguished Service Cross
The only medals with "star" in the name were:
Silver Star Medal
Bronze Star Medal
Hope that helps. Now you can search for them on internet and see which one you have.
