Raymond Cammock DFC (4 July 1923–6 October 1944) was a flying ace of the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) during the Second World War.

From Christchurch, Cammock joined the RNZAF in August 1941 and was sent to England to serve with the Royal Air Force (RAF) once his training was completed the following year.

Killed on 6 October during a strafing attack on a train in the Netherlands, he was posthumously awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.

[1][2] He was educated at Papanui Technical College and once his schooling was completed, he worked as a clerk for the New Zealand Government's Tourist bureau in Christchurch.

[3] His new unit, composed largely of New Zealand flying personnel and equipped with Spitfires, was based at Kings Cliffe, in No.

150 Wing as part of the Second Tactical Air Force (2TAF), carried out attacks on transportation infrastructure in northern France, as well as on shipping along the coastline.

It carried out armed reconnaissance sorties and close air support operations from airfields in Belgium and then the Netherlands.

[8] On 6 October, Cammock, who was making his 116th sortie with the squadron, and seven other pilots were seeking out targets of opportunity near Arnhem and spotted a train.

As he made a low-level strafing attack, his Tempest was struck by anti-aircraft fire and it crashed into the train and exploded, killing Cammock.

[1][3] However, military aviation historians Christopher Shores and Clive Williams state that the half share was actually for a V-1, and do not mention any aircraft destroyed by Cammock.

The announcement was made on 8 December; the citation, published in The London Gazette, read: This officer has displayed great zest for operations and has completed a large number of varied sorties.
