Here is an excerpt regarding Pokryshkin (vol. 1, page 58): "3 July 1941. (...) At 0715, the still relatively unknown fighter pilot, St. lt. Alexander Pokryshkin, claimed his first official victory over a 'PZL-24' over Strasheni (...). No matches can be found in Rumanian documents and the ARR did not lose a single fighter aircraft that day."
Merci Beaucoup! (Unfortunatelly, this is almost everything, that I remember of my classes of French language during my secondary school)
I heard about your book, but I did not know if still was available. Bergstrom's Black Cross - Red Star. Volume 1: Barbarossa, for example, is imposible to be found and bought, simply is not available). I hope it is not the case with your book
Kind regards
Diego
