I know that there were only two recipients of the Distinguished Flying Cross (perhaps just for the U.S Air Force?) in the Vietnam War. One of them being my grandfather, Albert Edward Worth Sr. ... It was awarded to him for his heroism during Operation Linebacker II in 1972. He served as a U.S Air Force NCO tail-gunner of a B-52D Stratofortress.
