First A/A Kill of the Gulf War?

According to the NAS Fort Worth Plan of the Week (about 2 weeks ago):

An EF-111 out of Mt Home AFB, Mt Home, Idaho, logged the first kill of the
Gulf War--much to the chagrin of the entire fighter community, many of whom
still refuse to recognize the fact.

The EF-111, having no offensive weapons, was jumped by an Iraqi MIG in the
first strike of the war and after several defensive maneuvers in Terrain
Following by the EF-111, the MIG plowed into the side of a mountain. The
ground, having a PK of 1, won. After the war, the aircraft was retired and
flown to Wright Patterson AFB where it is on display in the museum.

According to the author, he's personal friends with the WSO on this mission.
