Captain William Boyd Elliott was a World War I flying ace credited with five aerial victories.〔http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/canada/elliott3.php〕 ==Honours and awards citations== Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) Lieut. (T./Capt.) William Boyd Elliott. This officer has taken part in one hundred bombing raids, in the majority of which he has been leader, a position for which he has the essential qualities in a marked degree. viz., courage, resolution, and resource. While leading one bombing raid his formation was attacked by thirty hostile machines; ten of these were destroyed, the objective was successfully bombed, and the formation returned without the loss of a machine. This brilliant success was mainly due to Captain Elliott's skilful leadership.
