Re: Groupie Normandie on 17Oct44

I located another part of the story. Nikolai Danilushkin (Radio operator-Gunner) and Stepan Fiippovich Yakubov (Navigator) after parachuting were covered by the Yak3 flown by Jean Emonet. After his Yak3 was shot down they landed in "No Man's Land". Emonet was wounded in the arm and both legs. Yakubov carried him back to Russian lines under fire for treatment.
Also another Pe2 was shot down that day flown by Lt Nikolai Petrovich Vorobyev who made a forced landing.
Thanks for the help,
Michael
