Re: Looking for losses of I/St.G. 2 March 1943
Thank you Larry, I'll keep that one set aside for when I get to that day. The Location on the map is Krasny Bor which is NW of Ul'yanovka.
The Soviet unit that made the claims on the 05 Mar 1943 were the La-5 equipped 169 IAP with Kapt. Grigoriy Ivanovich Zaporozhchenko claiming a Ju 87 (5) and Podpolk. Andrey Andreevich Fedotov claiming a Ju 87 (7) at Kuliki and Goluzino which is south of Staraya Russa. Ml.Lt. Fedor Makarovich Mazurin from 28 GIAP flying a Airacobra claimed a Ju 88 (3) west of Staraya Russa.
Are the Luftwaffe loss records showing gaps during this time period or maybe just overclaiming as there were far more German fighters claimed then actually lost.
