AE's fielded all 5 pilots for frame V : Bluzoo Heaven, Ozzone, Pppepp, Besea

1st sortie: working with the 352nd AE's launch from CV10. We agreed to search NW area for enemy carriers we split up into 2 groups. As we stayed about 15 miles apart. Bluzoo, Ozzone Pppepp the southern leg Heaven and my self the Northern leg...we stayed just under 20k, so we was sure not to miss anything.just as Northern leg crossed the 4 vertical line Heaven spotted the Carriers.southern leg soon joined up.. we verified there was 2 cv's and hdg and reported location 4, 10, 6, 6 hdg 240 deg..we decided to vacate area..1 minut,e later we spotted many 12+ high zero's trailing us. We tried not to come directly to your CV, but made RV. With 352nd at the 6, 10, x. Neearing low fuel we RTB'd..it was shortly after the 352nd engaged enemy in the 7, 8, 5 arena..

2nd Sortie: we launched headed into the 7, 8, 5. Hearing our strike group.was at 7, 7, 8 hdg N. The 352nd was rtb for fuel.so they make the escort RV.. I decided to relocate the enemy carriers again.. back into 2 groups Ozzone spotted them and reported them at the 4, 10, x. Hdg 240 we turned for home... nearing the 6, 10, x, we hearing zero's trailing our strike package. In the 6, 10, 5 hdg west .Heaven and me, was very near diverting we was at 23k went we spotted the strike package..we found a 2 zero, s at 19k..we engaged these zero's.killing 1 and pushed the other down.into the waiting guns of Dobs , and Vulche..he was dispatched...AE's rtb'd

3rd Sortie: we worked well with the 352nd ..swapping cap duties at this point to relieve 2 steps for escort duties..1 step of 352nd and AE's capped our CV's..pumping our fist in total elation.as we watch the kill board light up with 352nd kills.and seeing that our strike package killing 2 carriers , 2 DD's..way to go Gents...but it was short lived because we had our hands full. In a very hectic battle to defend our boats..cap at this point was on the deck with zero's and Betties..about to over run the cavalry showed..in the nick of time!!!.spent of ammo ..AE's trapped. With dar clr 12 minutes left for surface attacks ILaunching 2 for cap the rest on ready alert until t+160..

AE's credited. 4 kills-no losses

Heaven= 2 kills ( a6m, B5n)
Besea= 2 kills (a6m, b5n)
Bluzoo , , Ozzone, , Pppepp, with 3 pcs each...

Thank you 352nd.it was a Honor to fly with you Gents..AE's give you a Big, Crisp, Snappy, ... (S)
