Interesting perhaps for the horsey minded:
"Robert William Hanmer Everett DSO (29 May 1901 – 26 January 1942) was a British jockey and a Royal Navy Volunteer Reserve pilot during the Second World War. In 1929, he won the Grand National on Gregalach. In 1941, as a Fleet Air Arm pilot, he achieved the first "kill" by a rocket-launched fighter, shooting down a long-range Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor over the Atlantic.[1] For this hazardous success, he was awarded the Distinguished Service Order (DSO)."
