Many WWII discharge papers of individual servicemen refer to GO 33 WD 45, or "General Order number 33 of the War Department issued in 1945". This General Order created the Victory Medal and issued it to all soldiers currently in the army. (In each new year general Orders from the War Department started over at Number 1).
Your question does not specify the year of the general Orders you are inquiring about, but the GO 33 WD 45 is often seen.
I believe General Order 40 of the War Department in 1945 defined the Ardennes Campaign ("Battle of the Bulge") and is usually referenced on discharge papers to indicate a soldier was credited with participation in that campaign. This would entitle him to one little bronze "campaign star" to wear on the ribbon of his EAME - that's Europe-Africa-Middle East campaign medal.
