Occupation medal for Germany AND Japan?

[RickInVic]

Thank you scottplen and Salvage Sailor.  That confirms both cases are possible.  I realize records don't always list the bars (or other medal entitlements) either but I won't assume it's just missing from the medal and/or record in future for the Occupation Medals.

 

Regards,

Based on the criteria for being eligible for an occupation bar for WWII, the minimum days needed are only thirty. Based on this criteria, my dad is eligible for Japan, Germany and Austria. I know they didn't have an Austria bar, but I have seen an unauthorized one in a collection. 

 

Japan 1947-50

Austria 1954

Germany 1954-57
