Churchill ordered that this RAF Air Commodore should be killed.

In the event, this did not happen. What was his name and why was the order given?

 

Air Chief Marshal Sir Ronald Ivelaw-Chapman. (Air Commodore at that time)

He was shot down over France and knowing the D-Day plans Churchill ordered him to be killed. He evaded but was captured two days after D-Day and made POW.

 

That's right.

As far as he knew, Churchill's order was never officially rescinded!
