The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Distinguished Flying Cross to Lieutenant Glenn A. Braun (NSN: 0-145686), United States Navy, for extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight in the Pacific Area from 17 March 1945 to 26 April 1945. Lieutenant Braun completed twenty flights in a combat area where enemy anti-aircraft fire was expected to be effective or where enemy aircraft patrols usually occurred. His conduct throughout has distinguished him among those performing duties of the same character.
