[Nokose]

This is from a 103 ShAP report for the 29 Jul 1942. Three Il-2 from the 103 ShAP attacked a German mechanized column at Nikolaevskaya. They had as escorts 5 Yak-1 from 247 IAP and 7 Yak-1 from 16 GIAP. Bf 109 pulled the escorts into a dogfight leaving the Shturmoviks alone. They were intercepted and shot down leaving the target.
