General Report

While patroling over the area Yellow Section was bounced by a bandit. I spotted the bandit shorty after the attack and managed to get behind it. My first burst missed, but with the second one I scored some good hits. I lost sight and tried to reform with the other sections. While doing this I saw anti-aircraft fire from our troops in Hachenburg. I saw the bandit which turned out to be a Fw 190. After it was attacked by a frienly fighter I fired a long burst at it while it was climbing hitting the fuselage.
