Flight Lieutenant Wallace McIntosh DFC & Bar, DFM (27 March 1920 – 4 June 2007) flew 55 bombing missions with the RAF during the Second World War as a rear gunner in Lancaster bombers. McIntosh was regarded as the most successful air gunner in Bomber Command during the Second World War, and was credited with shooting down eight enemy aircraft.

Seven of McIntosh's claims were shared with a fellow crew member, mid-upper gunner C. B. "Larry" Sutherland (RCAF). McIntosh also claimed two "probables" and one "damaged" (which was also shared with Sutherland). In a single operation on 7/8 June 1944, McIntosh and Sutherland claimed three German night fighters.
