Despite his injuries, the intense danger of remaining in his rapidly burning aircraft and the difficulties of controlling it, Millington stayed in the cockpit.

War Stories

He managed to crash-land his Hurricane clear of the village and escape from it before it exploded. For his determination to avoid causing harm to others, whilst placing himself at risk, Millington was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross DFC in October Bill Millington was born in Britain but emigrated with his family to Australia in Following his crash-landing on 31 August, he was treated for severe burns in hospital.

After recovering, he continued to fly successful missions until he was shot down over the Channel on 30 October Despite being so heavily outnumbered, Brothers pictured here on the left did not hesitate in immediately leading in his flight against the enemy. But before he could attack, he was fired at by a number of Messerschmitts. Brothers kept his cool and turned to face them.

But he found himself in a stalled position and had to use all his skill to spin out of it and recover. He then sighted a Dornier bomber, quickly targeting it and shooting it down. His outstanding leadership skills were a huge asset during those intense months. He led by example and did all he could to boost the morale of his men and, in particular, new pilots. Later in the war he was awarded a DSO for his 'courage and brilliant leadership'. Cleaver was an experienced fighter pilot who had already destroyed a number of enemy aircraft in operations over France.

During the raid, he led his section with courage and determination against the German bombers. Cleaver went into the attack and destroyed one of the German aircraft. With his aircraft damaged and his sight severely impaired, the obvious choice would have been to bail out. But he refused to abandon his aircraft and instead, with great difficulty, made a successful landing.

Cleaver was rushed to hospital where his sight was partially saved, but he was unable to continue his flying career in the RAF. In September , he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his bold bravery in attacking the enemy bombers and in saving his aircraft despite such painful, impairing injuries. Surrounded by flames and with blood pouring down him from his injuries, Nicolson prepared to bail out.

Despite being in severe pain, he put down his parachute and reached instead for his gun controls. He poured fire into the German aircraft, keeping up his assault even as it tried to turn and twist away from him. As he attacked, Nicolson noticed that the intense heat of the cockpit was burning his flesh.

Only then did he abandon his Hurricane. After giving the Messerschmitt one last burst, he struggled free of his blazing cockpit and tumbled out into the sky. Nicolson deployed his parachute and, as he fell, he took stock of his extensive injuries, noticing that he could see the bones of his left hand showing through the knuckles. He managed to land in a field and was rushed to hospital, where his life hung in the balance.

After several weeks, he had recovered enough to make it out of danger, but the burns he had received took much longer to heal. As part of Squadron, which was stationed nearby, Sergeant Oswald Dupee and Sergeant Thomas Banister were scrambled to intercept the incoming Luftwaffe force.
