No it is wrong. 2:15 p.m. German time, equivalent to 3:15 p.m. Soviet time at that time the last French has been laid for 10 minutes and the zone does not correspond either 15 km to the east. You have to look among, 12 la-5, 10 Yak-7, 1 Yak-1 lost this day By the 1st VA (AA). The 3 Yak-9s lost that day are those of the Normandie-Niemen and cannot have been shot down by Hartmann.
second correction : 1"8 GIAP lost Serzhant Ivan Stolyarov" for this day,in the repport of the 18 GIAP is wrotten no meeting with ennemy.
