Thanks for the clarification.

It is possible with some data manipulation and relabeling the x-axis.

clear
input index proj_red months
1 .4763174 24.46892
2 .7769159 68.40548
3 .7805855 45.94017
end

rename (pro mo ) (v1 v2)
reshape long v, i(index)
replace index = index - .5 if _j ==1

twoway bar v ind if _j == 1, barwidth(.5) ytitle("") ///
|| bar v ind if _j == 2, yaxis(2) barw(.5) ytitle("", axis(2)) ///
|| , ylabel(.4(.1).8) xlabel(.75 "1" 1.75 "2" 2.75 "3") ///
   legend(order( 1 "Proj Red"  2 "Months"))
