In this citation for the Theodore Roosevelt Distinguished Service Medal, Perry D. Floyd cites a long list of John F. Lehman’s accomplishments as Secretary of the Navy during the Reagan administration which qualify him to receive the award. Lehman is especially noted for increasing efficiency in the Navy and strengthening the military capabilities of the branch. Lehman was also involved in the naming of the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt.
Two photographs of Lehman and one of Floyd appear in the article.
