General Report

Flight B led by F/Lt 'Riksen' Richards took off from B. 77 to conduct a fighter sweep over Hertogenbosch with myself as Red 2 and F/O 'Zach' Z. Lamothe as Red 3. Encountered enemy aircraft shortly after crossing the bomb line where Flight B engaged enemy 109's during which I gave a unexpecting a 109 a burst of cannon and machine-gun fire. Shortly after regrouping we encountered a flight of more 109's. We engaged. Amidst the chaos, one had managed to get onto my tail and sent a burst into my craft which sent me in. I managed to bail out and get picked up by friendly recce unit's operating in the visinity.
