My father passed away last week. He was in WWII in Patton's army. He received the medals that I've attached and I cannot find them on any site (except for the bronze star). Can someone identify them ?
Thanks.

From left to right :
European campaign medal
National defense medal ( for those that enlisted rather than being drafted )
Good conduct medal
Thanks for the reply but I'm not sure what you mean by left to right. They show up top to bottom.
Steve is giving you the name of the medals showed on the second and tirth pic.
The medal bar is made of 3 medals.

The last photo is the ribbon bar of the 'Asian-Pacific Campaign Medal'.
In the second photo, the yellow ribbon in the center of the bar
is for the 'American Defense Medal'.
( SteveR, the 'National Defense Medal' came later - 1953 )

Steve.
Thanks for your help
Same, but different...................!
Regards,
Steve.
