Distinguished Flying Cross Sticker — Distinguished Flying Cross Medal Vinyl Sticker

The mark of heroism in the air — the Distinguished Flying Cross, America’s tribute to those who have distinguished themselves by extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight.

The Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) is one of the highest military decorations awarded to members of the United States Armed Forces. Established by an Act of Congress on July 2, 1926, the DFC is awarded to any person who, while serving in any capacity with the Armed Forces of the United States, distinguishes himself or herself by heroism or extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight. The medal’s bronze cross pattée features a four-bladed propeller at its center, suspended from a ribbon of blue and white vertical stripes, symbolizing the sky through which its recipients have demonstrated their valor.

The Distinguished Flying Cross has been awarded to some of the most legendary figures in American aviation history. Charles Lindbergh received the first DFC for his solo transatlantic flight in 1927. Amelia Earhart became the first woman to receive the decoration. In World War II, the DFC was awarded to thousands of bomber pilots, fighter aces, and aircrews who faced withering enemy fire over Europe and the Pacific. In Korea, Vietnam, and every conflict since, the DFC has recognized aviators who performed acts of extraordinary skill and courage under the most dangerous conditions imaginable.

This vinyl sticker features the Distinguished Flying Cross medal, allowing recipients, family members, and supporters to display this prestigious decoration on vehicles, water bottles, laptops, and personal gear as a mark of aerial valor and achievement.

Perfect For: Distinguished Flying Cross recipients, military aviators and aircrew, families of DFC honorees, veterans of all branches, military medal collectors, and aviation history enthusiasts.
