Tophat vectored us towards France to intercept returning enemy fighters. Just N of boulogne we encoutered 4 109's. sqdrn ldr dixon engaged 1 enemy 109. I failed to follow up the attack en turned to stay with the leader. We were quicky in a disavantage en returned towards England. Near Dungeness the 109's caught up with us and I was forced to dive out. 2 109 followed me in and near the deck I received a hit that blew away 1 aireron. I managed to looses the engaging 109's and rtb at an airfield near the coast.
