[Mirek Wawrzynski]

Hi
If right remeber, his "1-st" victory was own Su-2 shot down on 22.06.41, luckly crew had survived unharmed, this also counts.
He did not know, what he did shot at then.

Regrads,
mirekw

PS.
There is one big book printed in Russian in 2008, about Soviet aces in GPW (by "Bykow" or so?), there are a list of all his victores, but have not yet mached.

Some time ago had been printed a nice story about early period of 55. IAP (in 1941) by Russian author too. He wrote about Pokryschkin and Rechkalov competition in this unit too done according Russian archive. Somewhere should be on the net.

The books done by Bergstrom, Black Cross ... vol I (two edition) there are not good sources of information. Checking data from them and other sources (Russian and other) I have found too many fantasy and errors in them. But if you like fantasy of course it is very good books.

Books done by Denes Bernard and Dymitry Karlenko are much more usefull and credible sources for this period but ending in October 1941.
