Flight Lieutenant Frank Neville Hudson MC (4 November 1897 – 6 June 1922) was a British World War I flying ace credited with six aerial victories.
After passing out as a "Gentlemen Cadet" from the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, Hudson was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Buffs (East Kent Regiment) on 15 September 1915.
He gained his first victory by sending an enemy reconnaissance aircraft down in flames over Courcelette on 27 January 1917, and drove down another on 13 February.
[9] Initially reported as missing, it was not until September his father, Frank Hudson, of Park Langley, Beckenham, received notification that his son was unwounded and a prisoner of war at Karlsruhe.
[10][11] Hudson remained a POW until after the armistice in November 1918, and in December 1919 received a mention in despatches "for valuable services whilst in captivity".
