Re: JG 77 victories
In Prien's JFV 9/III for III./JG 77 there is a listing that an unknown pilot recorded a kill of a Il-2 with no location and time. Between 18:28-18:30 (M) the 3 GIAP and 4 GIAP KBF escorted a group of Il-2 from the 57 ShAP KBF for an assault in the Arbuzovo region. One Il-2 flown by flight co St. Lt. Aleksey Vasil'evich Nenashev was KIA at Peski directly across the river. It doesn't say how he died but it could be this claim. Despite Soviet claims of 4 Bf 109 shot down there are no recorded losses by III./JG 77 and JG 54.
