Bronze star receipients?

There is no overall list. There were tens of thousands of recipients during the war. Than after the war the Army decided that anyone who was eligible to wear the Combat Infantryman's Badge was also entitled to the Bronze Star. There were two types of awards of the Bronze Star: for valor, in which case the Medal came with a bronze "V Device" to be worn on the ribbon, denoting that the award was for valor, or, for "meritorious service", which came without the "V Device". The mass awarding after the war to CIB holders was for "meritorious service", so, no "V Device". If a soldier had earned a Bronze Star before he was discharged it would be noted on his discharge papers, along with all awards and decorations which he was entitled to wear. Many men were already discharged before the decision to make the mass awarding of the Bronze Star was implemented, and they had to write in for their Bronze Star, which many never did.

Why is mark Mcglone not list as a Bronze star recipient?

There is no overall master list of recipients. Many thousands were awarded during the war. The Bronze Star could be awarded for valor, in which case it came with a small brass "V device" to be worn on the ribbon, or, for "meritorious service" (which need not even be combat related) in which case it came with no "V device". After the war the Army decided that any man who was entitled to wear the Combat Infantryman's Badge was also entitled to a Bronze Star. It was further decided that this mass post-war awarding of the Bronze Start was for "meritorious service", so, no "V device". Many units such as divisions and regiments published their own histories after the war, and these usually include a list of all the men who earned decorations. Such databases and lists as exist online today are mere compilations of names submitted by Bronze Star recipients or their families, and are in no way a complete listing.
