A Waffer Thin Mint

2nd Lt.Tervo's Hawk 75A-6

MiG-3

I have some spare time today, so thought I might squeeze in just one more scenario for the Lard Mag. This one will feature 2nd Lt.Kalevi Tervo, the top scoring ace of LeLv32 with 14.25 kills to his name.  This was one of his last actions in November 1942, before he transferred to the elite LeLv 34 in February 1943, flying the Bf-109G;

'Two days later, whilst reconnoitring Lotinanpelto, 1Lt Tervo’s schwarm from 2/LeLv 32 intercepted a single Pe-2 from 119 RAE (Reconnaissance Aviation Squadron) and shot it down. The schwarm also bounced a section of MiG-3s and claimed two of them destroyed shortly after downing the Pe-2. Tervo was in action again on the 11th when he led his section against a formation of six MiG-3s over the Olonets Isthmus, sending one down in Vonozero area"

The last of these dogfights on 11th November looks the most promising, so I'll have a crack at that. I'll give Tervo a Top Ace rating for this but probably down rate at least one of the Finnish pilots in order to balance the scenario. The Soviets will also get a couple of Junior Aces to give them a fighting chance.
