My Legend is the mystery of my Grandfather's Bronze Star

My Grandfather Vodra Oliver served in World War II and fought in the Battle of the Bulge in the Ardennes Forest.  When we we young he allowed to look at and play with some of his war medals.  Among them was a special medal in a box he never allowed us to play with.   He never talked about it, but others in the family tell a story of his bravery on the battlefield in helping wounded soldiers and losing part of his ear while attempting to rescue someone.   I can't find any record of his being awarded the Bronze Star and I would like to find out more about his story.
