Photo 01: The remains of Fw. Ludwig Bielmaier's Bf 109E-7 of 5,/JG52 which was shot down on POW while escorting about fifty Bf 109 Jabos to London. Fw. Bielmaier was flying as Rottenhund to Lt. Gunther Witt when they were attacked by ten Spitfires which dived from above and behind. Hit in the radiator, Bielmaier dived, then climbed in an attempt to get onto his attacker's tail. However, this manoeuvre failed and the Spitfire attacked him again, hitting the engine. Bielmaier baled out at 4,000 ft and was captured unwounded. His aircraft, coded '4' and carrying the Staffel's red devil with bow and arrow emblem, crashed into Mereworth Wood near West Mailing in Kent and was completely wrecked.
