Answer The last day of the war, the Victory Medal was issued by General Order #33 issued in 1945 by the War Department. Several years after the war, the Prisoner Of War Medal was issued for any soldier who had been captured and held as prisoner in any war. This medal was not created then but after the war, the Bronze Star Medal was automatically issued to any soldier who had previously earned the Combat Infantryman's Badge, which was given to a soldier who qualified as an infantryman and who served in combat.
