Re: Luftwaffe reports on downed Lavochkins
Just my two cents...... in the ranks of JG 6, especially with I./JG 6, there were still a lot of pilots with experience on the Eastern front. Within I./JG 6 several pilots had flown numerous missions with I./ZG 1 in Russia. I./ZG 1 became later I./ZG 26 and then I./JG 6. Also in II. and III. Gruppe were several pilots who had seen combat on the eastern front in other units before.
cheers,
John.
Ps. I am not familiar with difference between La-5 and La-7, so I can not comment on the validity of the report itself.
