There were estimated 50+ FW190 and Me109s in small batches, and the Squadron attacked with more eagerness than skill as F/O Humphries and F/Lt Howard were both shot down though both are believed safe and both scored before they were clobbered. Mike Humphries destroyed a FW190 and Howard damaged a Me109"
