[Andrey Kuznetsov]

Hello Ed,

newspaper reports - yes, with photos of distinguished pilots, anti-aircraft gunners, downed German planes, etc. Unfortunately, the quality of newspaper images at that time left much to be desired.

local police [militsia] reports - certainly yes, but I have never worked with them. Firstly, air defense reports are usually sufficient, secondly - I think militsia reports are less accessible and scattered in local archives.

Best regards,
Andrey
