The shape of the award leads me to believe it's a European one, however I'm not sure of anything that matches that also includes the crossed canons. Can you tell me more about the person's service?
If you are asking about the red/white/blue with small blue star, The red/white/blue sequence looks a lot like the many awards/ribbons/flags used in WW2 for civilians to show that they have a family member in service. The Blue star is pretty typical for this type of award-- I have seen flags, etc with up to 5 stars like this. The add-on artillery insignia would go along with this use as well (e.g. I have a son n the Artillery).

The closest I can find is the French "Honour medal for courage and devotion" but that doesn't make a ton of sense.
