First I want to thank everyone for a job well done in difficult circumstances. JU 88s with Hawk leading traveled the northern route to avoid LW radar as much as possible. With the 352nd providing escort, they managed to close both targets only to lose many in the process. We were tasked with an almost impossible job in such close quarters and with short ranged fighters, none of which show effectiveness above 15-18 k. Looked like the 352nd was engaged early just SW F 6 and had to split the group for defense and escort. The NS flew the south route to enemy shipping SW of Sevastopol with the 4th flying P 39Qs as escort. I chose to have a flight of 4 LA5s stay home to guard against a possible attack on our base(F 194). 4th trailed the Mossies, but never caught them and found some ships S F42 which they tried to sink with the 37mm. Seems with the short legs of our a/c and mediocre performance level, we were spread rather thin. All in all, we managed to score some points and restrict the LW to the SW corner of Crimea for basing. My only regret was we had not enough resources to cover our IL 2 strikers who were easy tgts all night. SE la Vie gents.... my hat off to all who made this a fun series and sorry for not being able to get our LA 5s in good position to aid the 352nd late in frame. <S> all |
