They were handed out to thousands of members of the armed forces unnamed ( except for SA ) for participation in that theatre of war . I seriously doubt there is a list . Rob
God please take justin bieber and gave us dio back
Fairly certain there is not. The campaign star was awarded in great numbers to anyone who served in that theater, equally so this applies to all other WW2 campaign stars. Occasionally you will find one that is named, usually South African as already mentioned.
There is no know "list". Often (if you can find them) Service Records indicate medal entitlement. However (for most commonwealth countries) the soldier has to be dead for a certain time frame before you can access these records. In Canada it's 20 years. So unless you are a direct family member, you are pretty much out in the cold since quite a few WW2 vets have not died yet or if they have it has not been that long.
As already mentioned the Star was issued to thousands of servicemen and women. So I wish you luck with your search
The medal was awarded for service in the Burma Campaign between 11 December 1941 and 2 September 1945. This medal was also awarded for certain specified service in China, Hong Kong, Malaya and Sumatra:
Hong Kong - between 26 December 1941 and 2 September 1945
China and Malaya - between 16 February 1942 and 2 September 1945
Sumatra - between 24 March 1942 and 2 September 1945
Second World War service in China, Hong Kong, Malaya and Sumatra after 8 December 1941 but prior to the above start dates was recognised by the award of the Pacific Star.
British uniform regulations stipulated that the Pacific Star would not be awarded to a prior recipient of the Burma Star. Subsequent entitlement to the Pacific Star was denoted by the award of the Pacific clasp.
Eligibility requirements
Royal Navy and Merchant Navy personnel qualified through service in an area restricted to the Bay of Bengal, and enclosed by a line running from the southern-most point of Ceylon for a distance of 300 miles south, then to a point 300 miles west of the southern-most point of Sumatra, and continuing east to the western side of the Sunda Strait, including the Strait of Malacca. The 6 months service for the 1939-1945 Star had to be earned, before service could count towards the Burma Star.
Army personnel qualified through service in any part of Burma. Service in the Indian provinces of Bengal and Assam in the period 1 May 1942 to 2 September 1945 also qualified.
Air force aircrew had to make one operational sortie. Air Force ground crew had the same restrictions as the Army.
