C. Winter destroyed a DFW Type C reconnaissance aircraft. On 17 August MacGregor, alongside Flight Commander Bruno De Roeper and Flight Sub-Lieutenant R. E. Carroll, were credited with driving down out of control an Aviatik Type C reconnaissance aircraft east of Westende. MacGregor and De Roeper drove down an Albatros D.V over Moere on 20 August, and on the 22nd MacGregor destroyed an Albatros D.III solo north of St. Pierre Chapelle.[1] MacGregor then transferred to No. 10 (Naval) Squadron, where on 15 September 1917 in a dogfight over Moorslede with aircraft from Jasta 11 he shot down the first Fokker Dr.I of the war, killing the pilot Kurt Wolff.[1] He was promoted to flight lieutenant on 2 October,[5] and on 10 December he and Flight Sub-Lieutenant J. G. Clark destroyed an Albatros D.V over Oostnieuwkerke.[1] In February 1918 MacGregor was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. His citation read: Flight Lieutenant (Acting Flight Commander) Norman Miers MacGregor, RNAS. "In recognition of his skill and courage in aerial combats. On the 12th December 1917, whilst leading his flight on an offensive sweep, he encountered a body of six Albatross scouts at 14,000 feet. In the general fight which ensued he attacked a scout which was engaging one of our machines and drove it down out of control, and it was seen to crash. Act. Flt.-Cdr. Macgregor has destroyed several enemy machines and has led his flight with great dash and judgment."[6] On 1 April 1918, the Royal Naval Air Service was merged with the Army's Royal Flying Corps (RFC) to form the Royal Air Force, and No. 10 (Naval) Squadron became No. 210 Squadron RAF. A few months later, on 12 August, MacGregor gained his seventh and final victory by driving down another Albatros D.V east of Diksmuide.[1] MacGregor was transferred to RAF's unemployed list on 10 January 1919 at the rank of captain.[7] However, he was temporarily restored to the active list as a flight lieutenant on 10 April 1921,[8] serving until 5 June.[9] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web |url=http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/england/macgregor2.php |title=Norman Miers MacGregor |work=The Aerodrome |year=2015 |accessdate=22 May 2015 }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Macgregor, Norman}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.firstworldwar.com/bio/wolff.htm |title=Who's Who - Kurt Wolff |work=First World War.com |year=2013 |accessdate=22 May 2015}} 3. ^{{cite journal |url=http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1916/1916%20-%200133.html |title=Royal Naval Air Service: Appointments |issue=373 |volume=VIII |page=133 |journal=Flight |date=17 February 1916 |accessdate=22 May 2015 }} 4. ^{{London Gazette |date=1 August 1916 |issue=29689 |page=7566}} 5. ^{{London Gazette |date=5 October 1917 |issue=30324 |pages=10296–10297 |nolink=yes}} 6. ^{{London Gazette |city=e |date=26 February 1918 |issue=13215 |page=806}} 7. ^{{London Gazette |date=21 January 1919 |issue=31136 |page=1076 |nolink=yes}} 8. ^{{London Gazette |date=3 May 1921 |issue=32311 |page=3543 |nolink=yes}} 9. ^{{London Gazette |date=24 June 1921 |issue=32368 |page=5016 |nolink=yes}} 7 : 1896 births|1981 deaths|People from Chiswick|Royal Naval Air Service personnel of World War I|Royal Air Force personnel of World War I|British World War I flying aces|Recipients of the Distinguished Service Cross (United Kingdom) |
