I WAS TURMOIL YELLOW LEADER. MY FLIGHT BROKE
INTO A
GROUP
OF ME-109'S AND CLIMBED TO COMBAT. I MADE A
SLIGHT
TURN
CLIMBING TO THE LEFT. DURING THIS TIME THE
E/A
BOUNCED
THE FLIGHT ABOVE AND AHEAD OF ME. A SAW A
ME-109
ON
THE TAIL OF A P-47. THE P-47 EXECUTED A SLOW
ROLL FOR
EVASIVE
ACTION AND THE E/A OVERSHOT. AT THIS TIME I
WAS
IN
POSITION TO FIRE. I GAVE HIM A SHORT BURST
AND HE HIT
THE
DECK.DURING THIS DIVE I OBSERVED MANY
STRIKES ON HIS
PLANE.
SHORTLY THEREAFTER HE JETTISONED HIS CANOPY
AND
BAILED
OUT. I SAW THE SHIP CRASH. I, ALSO, OBSERVED
THE
ENEMY
PILOT'S PARACHUTE. I THEN MADE A FORTY-FIVE
DEGREE
TURN
TO THE RIGHT AND JOINED RED #2 WHO WAS IN
TROUBLE.
I CLAIM ONE ME-109 DESTROYED.
