Plan was take off North to reach 25K. We would then come in to fight wherever the Frame CO needed us.
We had to wait for first bomb to hit and sat nervously in tower at field 12 as several enemy flights flew right over us! Sweating bullets and downing shots of JD we snuck out north to execute our plan, the plan however got changed on the fly and we instead were vectored to the 7.5 X. Before reaching the 7.5 X we were jumped by a high enemy squad from the SW and another IJN squad slightly higher from the East.
352 was there to help but we were greatly outnumbered and out-planed
We lost many good men in what was basically a slaughter – preparing many letters today!
And our Ace is doobym
