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".

If Dennis Guthrie was a lawyer in Vietnam why was he awarded 2 bronze stars?

During the Viet War, the BS (Bronze Star) COULD be awarded for Meritorious Achievement. Therefore, you need (when ever confronted with this situation) to ask or see (or verify) if the medal was for "Valor" or "Meritorious" reasons. If it was for Valor, then the medal (and the orders will state it) will come with a separate bronze (or brass) letter "V" called the "V" device. The "V" device is attached to the cloth portion of the medal, or attached to the ribbon.


Who is the approving authority for bronze star with valor?
