Especially interested in the Russian downed aircraft part.
BTW, link to the record of the Bf 110 referred to earlier:

Hi Andreas,
Sadly, this large collection has never been microfilmed. These are original German papers and the only collection of captured German documents that were not returned to the BRD in the 1960's and 1970's. They were permanently confiscated because they deal directly and exclusively with downed Allied air crew. To this day, the administrators and archivists at BA-MA Freiburg remain bitter about it. I've got one word for them: Tough.
