Flight Lieutenant David Murray Peden, QC, DFC (19 October 1923 - 6 January 2022) was a Canadian air force pilot, lawyer, and author. From 1941 to 1945 Peden served in the Royal Canadian Air Force as a bomber pilot, completing the majority of his tour of duty with No. 214 Squadron RAF, part of RAF Bomber Command. Following the War he returned to Canada and became a lawyer in Winnipeg. Peden authored three books. He is best known for his 1979 memoir A Thousand Shall Fall, which former director of the Canadian Army Historical Section, C. P. Stacey, called "the best book any Canadian has written about his war experiences, and one of the best books about the war that has been written anywhere."
