From the Australian Army Service Corps, Palliser transferred to the Australian Flying Corps and was posted to 4 Squadron. Flying the Sopwith Camel, he flamed one balloon and downed a Fokker D.VII before his squadron was re-equipped with the Sopwith Snipe in October 1918. He downed five more Fokker D.VIIs that month but was killed in action several days later by members of Jasta Boelcke. |
