I'm having trouble identifying my grandfather's and great grandfather's ribbons. I can look some of them up, but most of the charts are for modern ribbons and don't seem to have some of the old ones. I spent about an hour and ID'd about half of them... need some help on the rest

Grandpa WWII Navy LTJG


Navy Unit Commendation
American Defense Medal
American Campaign Medial
Asia Pacific medal with two stars (why are they different?)
1? Phillipine Liberation medal

Great Grandpa WWI and WWII Army COL


2?WWI Occupation Medal
WWI Victory with 2 stars
Mexican Border Service
American Campaign
Eu African ME Campaign with 3 stars
WWII Victory
3?
4?
5?

Summer uniform? Or older uniform?

American Campaign
5? again
6?
It looks like the WWII victory medal again
7?
5? yet again

He also had these on the sleeves -
I think this means 2 years overseas in WWII and 6 months in WWI ?

Maybe this will help.

Already looked at that chart... and several others from google

The Little one is silver.- Means 5

A silver 3/16 inch star is worn instead of five bronze stars

6 total.. Bad ASS

Wow. Thanks.
So one for each campaign...

He was on USS Enterprise CV-6
He survived bombs and kamikaze attacks that killed members of his AA gun crew

Anyone on those unknown ribbons?

Great Grampa was in the artillery in WWI, left service, then came back to be a Logistics Staff Officer for 5th Army in WWII, starting in Operation Torch and  then into Italy

Top pic "with two stars" is a Phillipine Liberation ribbon. It's upside down.
Almost the bottom of this page on the right.

G'Gpa's ribbon, #2- is the WWI occupation service ribbon

#4 and #6 are some form or fashion of VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) medal.

Ribbon #5 is some kind of American Legion medal.

One thing to keep in mind, is there were quite a few State issued medals during the late 1800's, through the WWI era, so its possible some may be State Awards...

ETA I think #4 may be:

ETA Nope....I don't think so now...it seems like this came pretty much below The Medal of Honor...so it would be first in that stack...
