This official Special Order, issued by Headquarters Seventh Air Force, Pacific Air Forces, on 11 August 1970, records the award of the Distinguished Flying Cross to several Air Force officers, including Captain Robert H. Karre, who received his sixth Oak Leaf Cluster to the decoration. The Distinguished Flying Cross recognizes extraordinary achievement in aerial flight, and repeated awards of this kind reflect a sustained record of valor during combat operations over Southeast Asia in the Vietnam War.
