R. S. Bader, Wing Commander Adolph Gysbert Sailor Malan, Oberleutnant Ulrich Steinhilper, Flight Lieutenant H. M. Stephen, Squadron Leader Robert Stanford Tuck, Johnny Johnson, Squadron Leader M. N. Crossley, Squadron Leader A. McKellar, Cowboy Blatchford and Squadron Leader D. H. Smith, an Australian veteran of the Battle of Malta and many others whose names have now become legendary.
