Albert Ball VC, DSO & Two Bars, MC (14 August 1896 – 7 May 1917) was an English First World War fighter pilot and recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest decoration for gallantry "in the face of the enemy" that can be awarded to members of the British or Commonwealth armed forces. At the time of his death, he was the leading Allied ace with forty-four victories, and second only to Manfred von Richthofen ('the Red Baron') among all First World War aces. He remained the United Kingdom's fourth highest-scorer, behind Edward Mannock, James McCudden, and George McElroy.
