Douglas Bader

"Goodness. That's Douglas Bader. I think he's my favorite one, even for disabled ones, because he's a disabled pilot! My disabled friends love it too. I love this guy. He fought in World War II, but now I'm gonna bring this guy back from the dead."

Group Captain Sir Douglas Robert Steuart Bader, CBE, DSO & Bar, DFC & Bar, DL, FRAeS (/ˈbɑːdər/) is a Royal Air Force flying ace during the Second World War. He was credited with 22 aerial victories, four shared victories, six probables, one shared probable and 11 enemy aircraft damaged.

Bader joined the RAF in 1928, and was commissioned in 1930. In December 1931, while attempting some aerobatics, he crashed and lost both his legs. Having been on the brink of death, he recovered, retook flight training, passed his check flights and then requested reactivation as a pilot. Although there were no regulations applicable to his situation, he was retired against his will on medical grounds.[3] After the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939, however, Douglas Bader returned to the RAF and was accepted as a pilot. He scored his first victories over Dunkirk during the Battle of France in 1940. He then took part in the Battle of Britain and became a friend and supporter of Air Vice Marshal Trafford Leigh-Mallory and his "Big Wing" experiments.

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, a Royal Air Force pilot, Harry Gardner, along with Team RWBY, wanted to revive Douglas Bader when Gardner wanted meet to meet Bader again, and then Lincoln accepted his request to revive Douglas.

Using a reviving machine that Ruby Ramirez invented, a healing machine built by Miles Callisto and Lincoln, the newly-revived Douglas Bader became alive again when Gardner was using a healing machine, and a machine to make him return to his age at 31 (thirty-one) years old.

Now he is alive in World War III as he rejoins the Royal Air Force and the British Army, but he can join Team RWBY as well.

Now he will fight for the British Army, Lincoln Loud, the Royal Air Force, the United Kingdom, the Commonwealth of Nations, Team RWBY, the rest of the Future Alliance, and the rest of the Grand Alliance.
