Silver Star Medal Award
CITATION:
The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918 (amended by an act of July 25, 1963), takes pride in presenting the Silver Star (Posthumously) to Major Curtis Abbot Eaton, United States Air Force, for gallantry in connection with military operations against an opposing armed force in Southeast Asia while serving with the 357th Tactical Fighter Squadron, on 14 August 1966. On that date, Major Eaton piloted an F-105 Thunderchief fighter-bomber through extremely heavy defenses and destroyed a strategic petroleum storage tank fabrication plant deep within North Vietnam. The determined aggressiveness and dauntless courage exhibited in the face of intense hostile fire were exceptionally conspicuous. By his gallantry and devotion to duty, Major Eaton has reflected great credit upon himself and the United States Air Force.
