Re: S/L Cameron's combat report requested (24/05/44)
General Report: I was leading 401 Squadron on RAMROD 917 when 5 miles east of Cambrai Blue 3 and 4 went down to attack a train and after the attack spotted a short nosed Fw.190. Blue Section were unable to jettison tanks, so could not close range. Red 2 and I had our tanks off and chased the Fw.190 along the deck for 45 miles to Nivelles, closed in to 200 yds. The enemy broke hard to port. I gave him a 1 second burst 60 degree angle and he flicked into a wood and blew up. I took pictures of the fire in the woods. I claim one Fw.190 destroyed.
If you need a scan of the entire Form 'F', please 'PM' me.
