Citation:  1.) The President of the United States takes great pleasure in presenting the Distinguished Flying Cross to Lieutenant Colonel Theodore M. Wolfram for extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight as a C-130 Pilot in the Quang Tri, Hue and Da Nang areas, Republic of Vietnam on 4 September 1968. On that date, under extreme night weather conditions and hostile ground fire, his crew delivered a load of explosives and evacuated a critically wounded soldier. An operation, made possible by the evacuation, saved the life of the wounded soldier. The professional competence, aerial skill and devotion to duty displayed by Colonel Wolfram reflect great credit upon himself and the United States Air Force.
