When we approached and started to flash A52, we saw about 20 plus dots. We continued without engaging and tried to drag them away before engaging.
They eventually disappeared. As we were re-positioning we got jumped by a group of 109s. As it started to mix up another squad jumped in, in 190s. We became anchored immediately.
I got separated from my flight lead (Rodent57) and found myself and smitty in an epic white knuckle fight against Rauh, T2MAW, & Deadstick. One of the better fights I have engaged in, in a long while. Once we knew the bombers were there, I made my dash for safety. It was evident we were fighting against guys that knew what they were doing. Good sticks!
I eventually got separation and the 109s peeled off.
Started hearing of an engagement in the weeds to my east. Didn't realize I had squadies that close still trying to get out so I turned back in and attempted to scrub them. When I finally arrived there was only 1, 109 left so I made the only pass for a scrub and b-lined it out of there.
Seemed there was good and disciplined defense at A51 last night. Good squads to fight no doubt.

that defense. Last night was intense for me. Wish we could have sprung more of UNF through than we did, and for that I offer my apologies. I know FBs got engaged about a sector out and fought their way almost all the way to A51. By the time they were able to get to target I believe we were all separated and attempting a regroup effort during RTB. We linked up and stayed together and died together to the end.
