(1 Fw 190 destroyed)

 

I was leading Nalgo Yellow Section on an Armed Recce in the Luneburg area. When flying North approx. 5 miles East of Fassberg a/d I saw an a/c flying below me at 500 feet. Identifying it as a FW 190 I broke down to stbd. and opened fire in a 15° attack to port, range 250 yards. I held a steady burst, closing in to line astern at 50 yards. Strikes were obtained on the cockpit and wing roots and pieces flew off the enemy a/c as I broke away. The Hun crashed straight ahead and blew up. The pilot of the 190 took no evasive action whatsoever during the combat.
     

I claim 1 FW 190 destroyed.
