Ronald Graham (RAF officer)

Air Vice-Marshal Ronald Graham, CB, CBE, DSO, DSC & Bar, DFC (19 July 1896 – 23 June 1967) was a Scottish First World War flying ace of the Royal Naval Air Service.

In September, he pulled a lateral transfer into the Royal Naval Air Service as a flight sub-lieutenant.

He became part of the Saint Pol Seaplane Defence Flight,[2] which formed on 30 June 1917.

[3] Graham tallied his first two victories at this time, destroying a German seaplane on 19 June while piloting a Sopwith Baby, and another while piloting a Sopwith Pup on 12 August 1917; the latter was shared with Leonard Slatter.

[citation needed] On the outbreak of the Second World War, Graham was an air commodore on the staff at the headquarters of Fighter Command.
