I. Narrative: I was flying stray to Thirtbue squadron. We crossed the coast and no one in my squadron turned back so I joined d these plane another in Greenbelt squadron. One of the men had turned back. Shonly after we had 17 with one bombers I saw 8 FW 190's some distance ahead of us, make an attack on the bombers from ahead. I immediately reported there 8 FW 190 bombers other things I kept to close on on of my 4 to the sitfor. I started firing at about 15,000 feet at about 600 yards range. I hit thin o/o, module warrant sticks and then he turned and a overshot him. I whipped around on his tail again and started down again. His engine was smoking badly now. I did not catch his second time until he had gone down some 5000 feet or so. I got in some very good strikes, and I put his engine in fire. an were right down just above the ground. I hit him several times more at other ranges. I glued up to within 75 yards. I overshot again in his engine was going and he was diving down. I am almost sure his right wing came shot away. The plane was beginning to burn more and the pilot was evidently trying to force land in a bunch of small field. I slowed down and got behind him, gave him a few short bursts and he went straight inte the ground. The plane broke up. A wing came off and the engine stepped about 100 yards away from the rest of the plane. I then turned my guns on an FW 190 which was coming up to me from underneath the plane burning in the meadow. I made two runs over it. It was burning nicely. While firing at his w/o till come back from his engine and went his over by fire. I saw some strikes on some houses while I was firing at this Jerry but I saw no people. I then climbed up and come home alone. This FW 190 had a yellow nose. I claim One FW 190 Destroyed.
