Re: Yak aces

Grib flew with the 8th IAP from the beginning of the war. This unit became the 6th GIAP ChF on 03.04.42. Grib was awarded the HSU on 23.10.42. According to Bodrihin, he scored a total of 17 victories and so his last success must have occurred over Sevastopol. This would automatically eliminate the problem of a mystery He 111 over Bulgaria. However, to be completely sure we would have to ask MB.
