Re: 5GIAP pilots in March 1942

Jan,
Thanks for the link. It gave me the name Fedor Dakov for one of the pilots. I missed Efremov's name in Bykov's book so I went back and looked again and found it. He shows only one confirmed Bf-109 (archive confirmed) and a unconfirmed Ju-87 for the 21st while the website says 2 Bf-109 but states they aren't confirmed through the archives. It also mentions that Efremov's story of five against 30 was written in recollections again back in 2006. So there is more then one story about what happen but they don't match. No German point on it except no losses yet found. The archive report would probably give the story but it seems to have not been used.
