a word
Hi Franek
"Litvyak - if it is a Jewish name "
Litvak is the current Jewish word for Lithuania - the country - I do not know the origin - though it is likely from Yiddish & not Hebrew
In much English literature about the Soviet aviatrix it is spelled thus, without the 'y'
I cannot read Russian - I suppose that translating Russían into Polish or English etc - can mean inserting or omitting letters to enable a more correct 'sound'
