During World War II, only a small number of individuals received multiple prestigious military awards, such as the Silver Star, Bronze Star, and Purple Heart. However, specific statistics on the exact number of men who were awarded 2 Silver Stars, 2 Bronze Stars, and 2 Purple Hearts are not widely documented. These honors were typically awarded for acts of valor, meritorious service, and wounds received in combat, making such a combination quite rare. Further research through military records or specialized historical resources may provide more detailed information.

If you are wounded 3 times in the army do you get 3 purple hearts?

It depends on if it is three different accounts. Meaning, if you were to be wounded three times at once, only one purple heart would be awarded. If are wounded once, then, at a different time wounded another would be awarded. so, If you receive more than one medal is denoted by a bronze oak leaf cluster, if you have five bronze oak leaf clusters it is replaced by a silver oak leaf cluster, and finally five silver oak leaf clusters are replaced by one of gold.
