Re: JG 52 victories
04 Aug 1943 Tomarovka region
6 Yak-7B 0f the 728 IAP (265 IAD) led by Kapt. Arseniy Vasil'evich Vorozheykin attacked a group of Ju 87 under escort of 8 Bf 109. Vorozheykin claimed to have shot down three Ju 87 (his 6, 7 and 8 personal). His group claimed to have damaged 3 more Ju 87 and 2 Bf 109. Ml. Lt. Ivan Emelyanovich Marya had a claim filed for him for shooting down a Bf 109. Marya was shot down and KIA. I don't know if any other Yaks were shot down. There were no Bf 109 shot down. As far as the JU 87 being shot down, I have no information.
The victor in this incident is the only one claiming at this time and location.
7./JG 52 Lt. Erich Hartmann LaGG-3 (52) 10:19 PlQu. 35 Ost/61391
7./JG 52 " " " LaGG-3 (53) 10:30 PlQu. 35 Ost/61331
On my first post on this thread I had found another Hartmann victory. I now know that U-2 was his #16 from JFV 12/II.
