General Report ..................................................................................................................................................................... (6.)
South of Kerch, heard reports of fighters and split into pairs. While reforming, caught a yak bouncing a 109 wound up in a confused melee along with ColdFury. I'm not sure what happened to the rest of the flight. Got hits on one as it was firing on ColdFury. Broke off and went high, then turned in on one that was going for him and was killed instantly just as Kraken called to break. Possibly friendly fire?
