Timeline
Weaver was reported missing in action a second time. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross in March, and was mentioned in dispatches a few months later. In 1994, Claude Weaver III was inducted into the Oklahoma Aviation and Space Hall of Fame.
Weaver's grandfather, Claude Weaver, was an Oklahoman Congressman. Additionally, his brother, Corporal David O. Weaver, was a United States Marine who was killed in March 1945 during the battle of Iwo Jima.
On December 30, Pilot Officer Weaver shot down an Me109, his first victory in over a year. On January 21, 1944, Weaver scored his final victory, a Focke-Wulf Fw 190. This brought his total number of victories to 12.5 with 3 probables.
In March 1943, Weaver made his first attempt to escape. He tried to force his way through the barbed wire on the perimeter of the camp, but he got stuck for half an hour. Upon being discovered, Weaver was severely beaten, with one guard breaking the buttstock of his rifle over him. Soon afterwards, he was moved to Camp 49 in Fontanellato. At Camp 49, Weaver attempted to escape a third time, crawling through a sewer. The sewer was blocked at one end however, and he had to abandon his escape attempt. After three months at Camp 49, Weaver was moved back to Camp 21.
In September 1943, as the Allies invaded Italy, many of the Italian guards deserted the POW camp. Weaver and another officer escaped the camp, scaling two wire fences and a 16-foot wall. Using forged papers to fool German guards, the pair travelled about 300 miles to Allied lines. When he was roughly 20 miles from Allied positions, Weaver sprained his ankle, yet he managed to ride a mule to British lines on September 25.
Sergeant Weaver arrived in the United Kingdom on November 14. Weaver began attending additional training and was graded to be an above average pilot. From April to May 1942, he was assigned to 412 Squadron in the Middle East. In late June, Weaver was attached to No. 185 Squadron operating Supermarine Spitfires out of Malta.
Claude Weaver III DFC, DFM & Bar (August 18, 1923 – January 28, 1944) was an American pilot who joined the Royal Canadian Air Force during World War II. He was the youngest Allied flying ace of the war and was credited with 12.5 aerial victories. He was shot down and taken as a prisoner of war for one year before successfully escaping captivity, however he was later shot down a second time and killed.
Claude Weaver was born on August 18, 1923, in Oklahoma City. Weaver dropped out of Classen High School and travelled to Windsor, Ontario, where he enlisted into the Royal Canadian Air Force on February 13, 1941.
