Re: 9 December 1943 - YAK 1 loss (Lipfert's 74th victory)
Few more details of Karakozov's B-25C Mitchell. Detail of soviet 14 GvAP DD mission plan (TsAMO archives) for the night of August 09/10, 1944 Yugoslav supply-drop mission with the 7 assigned B-25s and their crews, including the 2 planes, lost to German night fighter(s): Karakozov's 42-32474, red '12' and Pchelov's 43-3507, red '4'. Plane No.22 has been cancelled, so finally only 6 flew the mission to Yugoslavia that night. Another pic shows '474' on the wreck at Nagymányok and another one shows Hungarian soldiers removing the live ammo from the wrecks in -, and beside the Nagymányok forest.
