The United States Army designated certain "campaigns" of World War II. These campaigns were the basis of campaign streamers awarded to units and campaign medals awarded to servicemen. In all, the Army designated forty-four campaigns as such. There were twenty-four campaigns in the Asiatic–Pacific Theater, nineteen in the European–African–Middle Eastern Theater, and one in the American Theater. In addition, there were also three "blanket campaigns": air combat, ground combat, and anti-submarine combat. The blanket campaigns were designated in all theaters except the American Theater, where only one was designated, anti-submarine warfare. (Full list...)
