WWII former member of Civil Engineers recipient of the CIB
#3

"The BSM was awarded to all WWII recipients of the CIB."

 

I assume you mean the Bronze Star Medal. I don't think it was given by default to CIB recipients. Larry, you want to step in here?

 

I'm not Larry, but: Yes, the BSM was awarded in the 1950's, I believe, to anyone who was a recipient of the CIB for actions in WWII. I have an original NARA document awarding it to a man on these grounds. I would have to get it out and read the exact verbiage it uses though.
