He claimed nine enemy aircraft (and one shared) destroyed, four (and one shared) probably destroyed, and four damaged,[2] before he was himself shot down and killed in action.[3]
Davis was one of 11 American pilots[citation needed] who flew with RAF Fighter Command between 10 July and 31 October 1940, thereby qualifying for the Battle of Britain clasp to the 1939–45 campaign star.[4]
