Richard,

I need to check the source of the following info, but I have on my database that the P-39s downed by Uffz. Klaus Dietrich of 2/JG 51 at 0404hrs and Flg. Gabriel Tautscher of at 0407hrs tie in with at least two of the following Soviet losses:

30 GIAP, 1 GIAD, 16 VA. Pilot Gorgolyuk baled out, Pilot Silkovskii KIA and Pilot Koltsov's aircraft set on fire in the air, pilot WIA

The day's other losses over the Kursk region include Yak-7B of Starshiy Serzhant Stepan Yakovenko, 487 IAP/146 GIAP KIA by Bf109 (allegedly murdered in parachute). 563 IAP's Leytenant N A Najdenovym forcelanded back at base with damage and 565 IAP's Gennadiy Georgievich Syrejshikov committed a taran and baled out.

...Just a few more pieces of the mosaic...

Nick
