He was the Commanding Officer of #1 Squadron during the Battle of France and the Battle of Britain; he was an ace, credited with destroying eighteen and one half enemy aircraft. W/C. Brown and F/O Allan Angus D.F.C. from McCreary, Manitoba were both aces in May, 1940. This was a time of confusion for all squadrons in the Battle of France and many records were lost. These two Manitobans tied for being the first Canadians to become aces in W.W.II. A special dedication service was held at the school in MacGregor, Manitoba in 1982, with plaques, pictures, and original uniforms of W/C. Brown. One special guest was S/L Roland Dibnah D.F.C. of Winnipeg, Manitoba, the only surviving member of #1 RAF Squadron, who flew with P/O Brown in the Battle of France. P/O Dibnah was shot down in May, 1940 and missing so S/L P. Halahan wrote the Dibnah family in Winnipeg saying, "I'm sure your son is alright and I've recommended him for the D.F.C. for his superb fighting." In 1980 S/L Roland Dibnah's mother died, Roland found the original letter and sent it to RAF Headquarters in London, England. He received his D.F.C. - 40 years after the recommendation. He too was an ace with 9 enemy aircraft to his credit and flew all during the war but was never decorated. Ex Squadron Leader Roland Dibnah D.F.C. died in Feb 1990 at Vancouver, British Columbia. For a full story see the book Wings of the Morning by F/O Angus's sister, Jean Segall. Wing Commander Pilot Brown is buried in Catania War Cemetery, Sicily.
