SKIP-BOMBING AT CAPE BON

On the 29th of April 1943, six P-38s of
the 82nd Fighter Group were on a skip-
bombing mission when they encountered 12
Bf109s of the "Yellow Nose" squadron.  A
wild dogfight ensued, and three P-38s
were lost with another three coming home
on one engine, one of which crashlanding
in Algiers.  Seven Bf109s were claimed as
downed.

MISSION

Attack the Tunis Laager Site, near
Cape Bon.
You may need to abort that mission,
however, and jettison your bombs to
effectively dogfight the large group of
Bf109s that are approaching.

NOTES

This is a day mission.
