The only other action of the day occurred when Lt Bromwich of 805 Sqn (part of the RFNS) attacked a Bf 110 north of Ras el Kanayas. Bromwick [sic] engaging it for 15 minutes in his Martlet. Despite one cylinder being shot away early in the combat, he managed to claim his opponent as probably destroyed (no Bf 110s mentioned in German Casualties).
