Second Lieutenant Maurice Edmund Mealing MC (21 July 1893 – 24 March 1918) was a World War I flying ace credited with 14 aerial victories.
Then, in March, while Mealing was on the brink of acedom, the German build up toward their last offensive supplied him with numerous opportunities.
Between 8 and 24 March, he accumulated ten more wins, including another balloon busted, a reconnaissance aircraft shared with Captain William Spurrett Fielding-Johnson and another two-seater downed while teamed with Second Lieutenant Harold Walkerdine, Lieutenant Henry John Burden, and three other British pilots.
[1][2] On 24 March, he was seen pursuing a pair of German two-seaters; another report had him standing waving next to his grounded aircraft.
