Re: Soviet P-63 pilot, escaping with He 111 w.V1(s)
Ruy
This recalls old Russian jokes about Radio Yerevan.
A group of Soviet POWs escaped from Peenemuende on He 111 and crashed behind own lines. All of them were sent to filtration camps and then to ordinary camps as traitors (standard procedure for POWs), only part of them surviving the latter. I do not remeber their names, date nor other details but perhaps our Russian friends can fill the gap.
Unless proven by documents or photos, service of P-63s on the eastern front should be considered a myth to say the least.
