CITATION:

Silver Star : The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to Senior Chief Boatswain's Mate Richard A. Kaiser, United States Navy, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action while serving as a member of a U.S. Navy SEAL Team, U.S. Naval Special Warfare, assigned to Task Force RANGER, during combat actions in Mogadishu, Somalia, in October 1993. While under withering enemy fire during actions in support of UNOSOM II operations, Senior Chief Boatswain's Mate Kaiser demonstrated a complete disregard for his own personal safety in the accomplishment of his mission. His actions were in keeping with the highest traditions of U.S. Naval Special Warfare operations and reflect great credit upon himself and the United States Naval Service.
