General Report ..................................................................................................................................................................... (6.)
Attack mission on the coat of Eitgen. lead flight flew scout ahead of 6th staffel. We spotted landing craft dropping armor on the coast and called 6th in to make their runs. They were a bit behind so lead flight went in first. Stab leader's bomb missed, but both mine and Vak's hit the mark and we each scored a tank kill. The last tank was killed by somebody from 6th.
After that we loitered for a bit but then spotted a fight over kerch 2. looks like yaks attacking a formation of BF110's x4. Stab lead got 1 and 6th got one as well, looked like yaks. After confirming no contacts, we descended to RTB
