What was the oak leaf medal giving for?
The Oak Leaf Cluster is not a medal. It is a small pin in the shape of an oak leaf that is issued for the 2nd (and 3rd and 4th) time you receive a medal. If you earned a Purple Heart Medal for being wounded, then the second time you would be issued "an oak leaf to the Purple Heart Medal". Campaign Medals were issued for service in a region for a specific time. Then if you continued serving and were in another campaign, you would receive a 2nd Oak Leaf to the Campaign Medal. Thus the Normandy landing was one campaign. Then if you fought into Germany there was one for that.
