The Bronze Star Medal is in the shape of a 5-pointed star, with the distance from one point across to the other is about 1.5 inches. 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. It has a ribbon that is primarily BLUE. The Silver Star Medal is a higher award for bravery in combat.

My name is Harold Stilley and I have a 1928 world war copper medal. I would like to know the value of this medal.
I like this title for World War 2: The War Fought by the Best Generation of The 20th Century. They have been given that label and it is the absolute truth. My dad fought in that war and there has yet to be another generation like them.
Like being in hell. There are NO good conditions in a war, it's all bad, all stupid and vulgar
Yeah, women were treated like dirt during world war 2. Men thought we were useless. But we can fight! (Not that I want to.) Good thing we have respect now.
