Oscar Heron
Captain Oscar Aloysius Patrick Heron was an Irish World War I flying ace credited with thirteen confirmed aerial victories. ==World War I== Heron was assigned to 70 Squadron as a Sopwith Camel pilot in May 1918. On 30 June, he scored his first victories, driving down one Albatros D.V and setting another ablaze. It would not be until 19 August that he would win again, when he destroyed a Fokker D.VII on an evening patrol. Again, there would be over a month's lapse,until he destroyed another Fokker D.VII on 28 September. On 1 October, Heron became an ace by destroying the only two-seater on his list; during the remainder of October, he would score eight more times, all the wins being over the highly rated Fokker D.VII. For one of those wins, on 9 October, Heron cooperated with Lieutenant Kenneth Bowman Watson and three other pilots to force down and capture a Fokker. In the end, besides the captured plane, Heron destroyed ten enemy planes and drove down two out of control.
