Re: Red Stars – Black Cross’s Ally over Poland. Soviet Aviation over East Part of Poland in IX, X 1939, a New Book

Well, if everyone agrees those were combat missions, then how about those flown by unarmed Cubs and Austers? And were the latter like WWI planes?
This was as much the same kind of sorties. The fact is that they were much more dangerous, but those men, finding those aircraft, volunteered for them. That is the nature of war, that it requires risk and sacrifice.
