General report

I was Green 3. The squadron was attacked by Me's 109 and we split up. A few minutes later I saw an Me.109 slightly above me and opened fire from astern. He went into a left hand spin and pieces fell of the machine. He disappeared into cloud and I lost him but F/O. Olenski followed him down and saw his crash. The pilot did not get out and was lying or sitting with his parachute near the crash.

(believed between Milton and Lymington)
