What dothe bronze stars on an army World War 2 ribbon signafy?

In World War II, bronze stars on an Army ribbon signify additional awards or achievements for meritorious service or acts of valor. Each bronze star represents a subsequent award of the same medal or ribbon, highlighting the individual's repeated exemplary performance. For example, if a soldier received the Army Good Conduct Medal multiple times, each additional award would be denoted by a bronze star on the ribbon. This system allows for the recognition of sustained excellence and dedication in service.

What is the difference between the bronze star service medal in World War 2 and a Bronze Star?

The Bronze Star Medal could be awarded for either "meritorious service" or for "valor". If the award was for valor, the Medal was awarded with a bronze "V device" to be worn on the ribbon of the Medal. After the war was over the Army decided that every WWII veteran was entitled to the Bronze Star Medal, but the award was for "meritorious service", not "valor", so no "V device".


Your father had a bronze star bronze star ribbon and then a small bronze star ribbon What does that all mean?

It probably means he earned a Bronze Star Medal. The medal was awarded to the soldier in a case that included three items: A bronze Star Medal, a ribbon and maybe a metallic version of the ribbon. The Bronze Star Medal was a medal in the shape of a STAR that was bronze. It hung from a ribbon that was mainly RED with a BLUE and WHITE strip. If awarded to the soldier, the STAR would have his name engraved on the back. If the ribbon has an Oak Leaf device or a small Star device or a brass "V" attached to the ribbon, this denotes a special recognition for the award. The Oak Leaf represents a second award of the Medal. The "V" recognizes the soldier for Valor.
