NAZI FIGHTER
GETS VERY SHORT SHRIFT
London, To-day. An Air Ministry bulletin contains details of the shoot- ing down by the rear gunner of a Hudson Coastal Com- |mand aircraft of a Messersch- midt 109 fighter over Holland yesterday.
The first that the pilot, navigator the front and wireless operator in of the Hudson knew of their gunner's success was when they saw the flam- ing, smoking fighter pass underneath them and go spinning to earth.
The Hudson had just carried out a bombing attack on target near Amsterdam, where a column of smoke had shot up as the aircraft flew off.
The Messerschmidt 109 appeared a few moments later and manoeuvred it into position for attack. Before could start its dive it had fallen victim to the Hudson's gunner.
