Laurent, Thank you for the sites you listed. Drygin was an Allied ace that was why I listed him here. He was shot down in 1942 in an I-16 and his legs were injured in the crash and suffered a concussion that caused him partial speech loss. He crawled on the ground towards Soviet lines until a scout patrol found him. It looks like his two claims (his 9th and 10th personal) for the day of Ju 87 got away. His witness was the General of the 4 VA who gave him a medal for his courage after he was shot down during the attack.
