GO 48 WD 45 refers to a General Order No. 48 issued in 1945 by the War Department. These orders issued by the War Department instituted medals for service in the War, such as the Victory Medals. I'm familiar with the European Campaign and GO 33 WD 45 authorized the Victory Medal. General Order No. 48 authorized the European-African-Middle East Campaign medal to be worn by the noted soldier who served in Central Europe Campaign during the period of March 22, 1945 – May 11, 1945. OTHER GENERAL ORDERS GO 33 WD 45 authorized EAME Campaign Medal for service in Southern France during August 15, 1944 – September 14, 1944. GO 40 WD 45 authorized EAME Campaign Medal for service in Rhineland Ardennes Campaign during September 15, 1944 – March 21, 1945. "One Bronze" could mean "one bronze battle star" or "one bronze arrowhead". The Arrowhead device is awarded to any service member who participates in an amphibious assault, a combat parachute drop, a helicopter assault landing, or a combat glider attack The battle star denotes participation in military campaigns or multiple bestowals of the same award.

The star is formed in relief with some rays along each arm and in the center is another tiny 5-pointed star.The ribbon is RED with a thin WHITE edge and has a BLUE stripe down the center also with a thin White edge.The Silver Star Medal is very similar but, of course, it is formed from a silver medal such as nickel alloy.

They were identified by the issuing HeadQuarters, the Year they were issued, and the memo number for that year.WD GO 33 45 was General Order #33 issued by the War Department in 1945 that established the European-African-Middle Eastern Theater Campaign Medal.The Bronze Star device that was attached to this medal signified 1 campaign. A silver star device inicated 5 compaigns. 6 campaigns in the EAME Theater would be indicated with one silver and one bronze star on the campaign ribbon.The discharge papers usually reference the General Order number for this EAME Campaign medal and it usually lists each campaign that he recevied credit for.CustermenThere was also a General Order GO 40 WD 45 and GO 46 WD 45 and GO 48 WD 45, but these seem to be related to a general campaign medal also.
