Camille Enright Malfroy, DFC (21 January 1909 – 8 May 1966)[2] was a prominent New Zealand tennis player of the 1930s and 1940s, competing in numerous grand slam championships of the era, and a fighter pilot and flying ace of the Second World War.

[4] Malfroy, like his older brother Jules, attended Trinity Hall, Cambridge, where he studied Economics.

[9] He also competed in a number of Grand Slam tournaments, nine times at Wimbledon, and once each in the France and Australian Opens.

After his 1934, the year of his final triumph in the New Zealand championships, he moved to England and thereafter only competed in Europe, notably at Wimbledon, but also a number of other minor tournaments.

[1] Soon after the outbreak of the Second World War in September 1939 he was mobilised with the Royal Air Force (RAF) and joined No.

On 10 May 1940, the start of the German offensive against Western Europe and France, his squadron moved across the English Channel as reinforcements for the RAF units already there.

The following day, the Hurricanes flew from St Helier on Jersey to cover the British Army's evacuation from Cherbourg.

He then had a short posting on the Training Staff at HQ 10 Group, before returning to operations in June 1943 to become wing commander (flying) at RAF Exeter.
