Dawn Line Patrol: The Esc 8 a/c were at 10000 when we spotted a Hun flight below us. Down we went, I was banging away at whatever passed by then followed my flight leader chasing a Albatross D V His gun appeared Jammed so I swung in and fired off 40 rds, then another then two more Finally. He rolled over and hit Zee ground. Mon Dieu ! , The Aerodrome has been attack while were up. Hangers gone and scorched 2 N-23 in shambles Total losses The ammo dump, 2 hangers. 2 N-23's 1 Spad. ( The fight) 4 Spads damaged for 2 Albatross D-V's.
Defensive Patrol: Seven a/c up mixed it with a flight of D-III's. I got good hits on one and pursued it . At low level on the enemy side of the lines he slipped under and I lost him among the smoke from a Arty Barrage. My claim was rejected.
