Re: KG1-operations vs. "Bagration" in June '44
The source of this story might be memories of a pilot called Balasko which he related to Alfred Price and were used in the old Profile Publications booklet on the He 177.
My limited experience suggests that when veterans speak of "heavy losses", "several accidents" etc., this often means that they have vivid memories of one particular incident (e.g. when a close friend was killed in those circumstances).
Another one is how Allied fighters were over their aerodromes "the whole time" - and then you see photos of aircraft (e.g. JV 44) standing in a row in broad daylight with no attempt at concealment.
