Awarded since 1944, retroactively to 1941, by the US Military to soldiers who distinguish themselves by heroism or meritorious efforts in combat. Not all Bronze Stars, however, are awarded for combat operations, and criticisms have been directed at the apparent "inflation" of the award.
321 Bronze Stars were awarded for the Kosovo Air Campaign. Three of these were awarded to officers for obtaining overflight permissions from foreign governments. During the course of the campaign, no Americans were killed during combat, and two soldiers were killed in a non-combat helicopter crash.
