Actually, the USAF upgraded a couple of Air Force Crosses to MOH for two more Airmen from the Vietnam war;

Chief Master Sergeant Dick Etchberger; who did not initially get the MOH because he earned it (posthumously) in Laos, a country we were not supposed to be in.

A1C Bill Pitsenbarger; in Vietnam, also, posthumously.
