Honorable Mentions

Maple Leaf Scramble by Robert Taylor
Maple Leaf Scramble by Robert Taylor
 

Other Canadian & RCAF Fighter Pilots of WW2

___________________________________________________________

Scoring goes - Destroyed / Probably Destroyed / Damaged

If one of those categories shows two numbers separated with a hyphen ( - ) the exact number is not known & the score is considered to be within that range.

According to Christopher Shores, the RAF decided that on 12 August 1940 an "Unconfirmed Destroyed" would be reclassified as a "Probably Destroyed." Here you will find early "unconfirmed" claims represented in the "probable" spot.

OTG = On The Ground, OTW = On The Water, KIA = Killed In Action,
MIA = Missing In Action, KiFA = Killed in a Flying Accident, D = died

It should be noted that although we take great care to make these scores as accurate as possible, the main reason for this site is to put faces to names, not to be a definitive list of scores.

Typhoon Fury by Robert Bailey
Typhoon Fury by Robert Bailey

"September 1944. As the Allies moved relentlessly eastward across France after D­Day, Typhoon pilots fearlessly flew at low level to support ground troops. Depicted is ‘Pulverizer 2’ flown by F/L Harry Hardy of 440 Squadron RCAF over Belgium."

___________________________________________________________

This incomplete list of "Canadian & Honorary Canadian Almost Aces & Honorable Mentions" is made up of guys who were in the RCAF at some time during WW2, like the Americans who went to Canada and enlisted because the US had not yet entered the war ( I've read that approximately 10% of the RCAF enlistments when WW2 began were Americans).
Whats a Canerican? Well, it's like an Americanadian except a Canerican was born in Canada and moved to the States & an Americanadian was born in the US and moved to Canada ... may or may not be an actual dual citizen. (I made up these words for people like myself who feel equally at home in either country. Americanadians & Canericans know who they are)
As far as this whole site goes however, in some cases I don't know if all the kills posted are air kills (which are listed by kills, probables, damaged, then OTG stats if any). If I learn some are ground kills (OTG), I add that info along with probables (prob) and damaged (dam) claims and adjust the Ace's score accordingly. [click here to see a list of abbreviations/acronyms/slang]

And another thing ...
If you have a photo that's better than one you see here, or better yet, a photo you don't see here, how about !?!
If you have corrections/additions/suggestions, feel free to click that link and suggest away.

THANKS

And Special Thanks to Janet & crew over at the Canadian Forces Joint Imagery Unit
