He didn't have a Chance
Proceeding to our patrol area, we were still trying hard to catch up with Paul Billik's 1. Kette,
when we had to witness, how they were attacked by Sopwith scouts, 200 Meter higher.
Climbing as fast as we could, we watched the fighting helpless.
Then I saw that Pup coming down right on Kraemer, firing. We were suddenly fighting, too.
But these RNAS guys had first only seen Billik's flight, I' msure. Cause they were only five,
against our ten Albatros.
Now that they had given up their altitude advantage, we made a quick job of them - they
were falling like flies. We thought the work was done, when another swarm of them came
over us like doomsday - or so we thought at least.
They were only four, and again, it was a butchery. None of them escaped.
Only after the fight, we realised, that they might have been diving to attack the nearby spotter.
And when they recognised all our Albatros circling so low, it was too late for them.
They had no chance really...
