I was reading in Solonin's second book "another chronology of the disaster 1941" about 43rd IAD. He says the Division was mostly covering airfields on the afternoon of 22 June and does not mention any encounters with the Luftwaffe. But in Michail Timin's article on Bobruisk airfield (
http://aircraft-museum.ucoz.ru/publ/..._1941/3-1-0-60 ) in it he mentions an air raid by the Luftwaffe. But there was no damage, so it must of been small. I speculate it was long range reconnaissance searching in depth for new air bases. If there were Luftwaffe sorties over Minsk they were most likely reconnaissance as well. But the 162 IAP (43 IAD) was at Baranovichi and there was a large collection of aircraft from 9 and 10 SAD there in the afternoon...Did the luftwaffe strike that airfield in strength on 22 June ? And if so, who?
