Except for the [[Air Medal]], unique decorations and awards issued by Department of the Army or Department of the Air Force, and those decorations and awards issued by the Department of Defense, the other uniformed services use [[5/16 inch star|{{frac|5|16}} inch star]]s to indicate subsequent personal decorations only; a gold {{frac|5|16}} inch star is equivalent to a bronze oak leaf cluster, while a silver {{frac|5|16}} inch star is equivalent to a silver oak leaf cluster.<ref>DoD Awards Manual 1348.33, V3, P. 50 "AM" (P. 51 Table 1, Key 1., 2., 11., 13.), 23 November 2010</ref>  While the Air Force uses oak leaf clusters for the Air Medal, since the Vietnam War, the Army has used {{convert|3/16|in|mm|adj=on}} bronze [[Arabic numeral]]s to denote subsequent awards, in which case the ribbon denotes the first award and numerals starting with the numeral "2" denote additional awards.<ref>DoD Awards Manual, V3, P. 55&56 (1), (2), 23 November 2010</ref>
