On 7 April 1945, Major Robin Olds was leading the 479th Fighter Group on a mission over Germany in his North American P-51 Mustang "Scat VI." Escorting a formation of bombers, Olds noticed contrails popping up over clouds at his nine o'clock position. Turning toward the contrails, he got "Tally-ho" on a group of 12 Messerschmitt Me 262 jets diving in on the bombers. After an engagement with one of the jets, Olds looked back at the bombers and saw an Me 109 attacking the formation. He followed the enemy through the middle of the bombers, opened fire and scored direct hits. The pilot bailed out and his airplane went straight in!

The autograph(s) includes an official PSA/DNA hologram and matching LOA for authenticity purposes.
