1st Lieutenant Clotilde Mary Govoni Kaluta, 8th USAAF, Operation Frantic
#3
Although awarded on 24th April, it wasn't sent out until 21st June 1995, 51 years to the day after enduring a German Air Raid on her position in the Ukrainian SSR.

"Dear Sir" - a rather telling sign on how few of these were actually sent to female recipients. Of the ~1,300 US service personnel that were part of the American Military Mission To Moscow only 13 were women.
