Hello and thank you in advance for the help...a 4th Marine Division marine that participated in the Saipan and Iwo Campaigns would have been authorized to wear two stars on their PUC ribbon correct?
Thank you,
Pat

NO, the ribbon represents the first award, and a single star representing the second..... would have been authorized to wear two stars on their PUC ribbon correct?
Thank you,

Actually according to both my 4th MarDiv Iwo/Saipan uniforms paperwork, the Saipan PUC was awarded with a Blue star, Iwo would constitute the second star.
The PUC should have two stars.

During the war, weren't they awarded with a star (blue early on) to denote actual participation in the action for which it was awarded and later or post war it became to denote the second award? That is what I recall reading or finding somewhere.
