It means the soldier awarded the bronze arrowhead took part in an assault on enemy held territory - either an amphibious landing from the sea if he was a ground-pounder, or an airborne combat drop if he was a paratrooper. These are worn on the ribbon for the EAME (Europe Africa Middle East) or Pacific Theater Medals.

No such device, at least, no on current Army ribbons. Stars, oak leaf clusters, and "V" devices (for valour) are the current ribbon devices. See related link 'US Army Ribbon Devices'.
