Re: Nowotny's 3rd victory for 19.07.41

Christer made a mistake unfortunately. That source doesn't contain any definite information about the place of the combat.

I use archive sources/documents and have the descriptions of the event from air unit point of view, from air/sea surveillance posts point of view and I even know who was responsible that Nowotny wasn't captured.

Of course I know the name of the victor. That was St.Lt. Babernov, who later was transferred to Northern Fleet Air Force and became commander of 78 iap VVS SF. His total credit was only 4 victories with Nowotny as the first one.
