Francis Fogarty

Air Chief Marshal Sir Francis Joseph Fogarty (16 January 1899 – 12 January 1973) was a senior commander in the Royal Air Force during World War II and also in the post-War years. During World War I he served as a pilot in the Royal Flying Corps. He was transferred to the RAF on its creation in 1918 and remained in the Service during the inter-War years.
==Early life and pre-World War II career==
Francis Fogarty was born in Cork, Ireland on 16 January 1899. Fogarty attended Farranferris College in Cork. In 1917 he joined the Royal Flying Corps as an Air Mechanic. However, he was soon selected for training as a pilot and was commissioned as a second lieutenant. During the last year of World War I, Fogarty served as a pilot on No. 98 Squadron, participating in the Battle of Amiens but having to land with engine trouble before he could bomb German airfields or rail lines.
Remaining in the RAF after the war, Fogarty was soon to see active service again, this time in Iraq. He was posted to No. 84 Squadron where he continued operational flying gaining a mention in dispatches and, after two years, receiving the Distinguished Flying Cross in 1922 for distinguished service. After spending the mid-1920s as a qualified flying instructor at No. 2 Flying Training School, Fogarty returned to Iraq and No. 84 Squadron in 1928 as a flight commander.〔
The first half of the 1930s saw Fogarty return to Great Britain, initially as the adjutant and qualified flying instructor on No. 601 (County of London) Squadron and then a short time later carrying out the same roles on No. 604 (County of Middlesex) Squadron, which he was instrumental in establishing with the assistance of a warrant officer and 19 airmen. In 1935, he took up his first command appointment as the Officer Commanding No. 84 Squadron back in Iraq before returning to Great Britain in 1937 to serve on the air staff of the recently formed Bomber Command. The following year he was appointed Officer Commanding No. 37 (Bomber) Squadron at Feltwell in Norfolk.〔
