Staton Very few British airman flew in action in both wars officially - a few others managed unofficial flights. Stanley Vincent (later Air Vice Marshal) was the only British pilot to shoot down enemy aircraft in both wars, though there was another chap who flew as an observer/gunner in WW1 and as a Defiant gunner in WW2 and scored victories. W E 'Bull' Staton (also later AVM) and one or two others flew as fighter pilots in WW1 and as Bomber pilots in the early months of WW2; he was later a Japanese POW but survived. Air Commodore BJ Silly was a DH4 pilot in WW1 and sadly did not survive being a Japanese POW in WW2.
