Delamere Francis McCloskey was a person who lived a long time ago. He was born in 1920 and died in 1944. He was a soldier who fought in a big war called World War II. He was from Canada, which is a country that is very far away from where you might live.
During the war, Delamere Francis McCloskey was a pilot. This means that he would fly planes to fight against the bad guys who were trying to hurt his country. It was a very dangerous job because the bad guys were shooting at him and he had to be very careful to avoid getting hit by their bullets.
One day, while he was doing his job, his plane was hit by a bad guy's bullet and he crashed. This means that his plane went boom and he got hurt very badly. Even though he was hurt, he was still very brave and tried to help his friends who were also in the plane. He tried to save them, but sadly he couldn't.
Because he was so brave and did his best to help his friends, people in Canada remembered him as a hero. They even named a street after him! People still talk about him today because he was such a brave and kind person who did his best to help others, even in tough times.
