Tokarev had his own A-20 with inscription "Za Stalina " the photo proves it
and what Minakov and other wrote is fine but not directly related . Tokarev
attended in summer 1943 the Moscow German and Axis captured equipment
display while still Colonel it was when he met again with Kalinin and Stalin
and it was also when he started briefly to train at Jukowsky on A-20 before
returning to Gelendjik . This A-20 was the single of the BSF to carry such
inscription . I know is hard for you to believe all this , I studied this subject
quite a long time and the conclussion is on my post but OK also in the past
we did not agree on Russian WWII subjects therefore you are entitled to
continue to hold on to whatever conclussions you may have in mind

PS : a) Check the attached Soviet footage dated summer 1943 , Tokarev can
be spotted on part 1
b) Attached his photo prior a flight , as into your remarks regarding
his flight clothing worn on Jan 30,1944 which was similar to this
