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".

Is there a list of Bronze Star recipients from World War 2?
As far as I know, there is no list for recipients of the Bronze Star Medal from WWII. The reason for this is, unlike higher awards that are awarded strictly for combat actions (Medal of Honor, Distinguished Service Cross, Distinguished Service Medal- which have lists of recipients) the Bronze Star Medal may be awarded also for non-combat reasons. Because of this, the list would be extraordinarily long, particularly for a period of war.

The bronze star on the National Defense Service Ribbon is for service during two periods of conflict. Most likely, that would be Vietnam war and the current post-9-11 period.
