Re: female soviet fighter ace Lilya Litvyak, KIA on 01.08.43
Just a detail that I oversaw. Checking Tony Wood´s ace list I found out that Fw. Hans-Jörg Merkle was a 30-victory ace and rammed by his last victim, a Yak-1...so maybe Litvyak commited a taran after being hit?

Are there any photos existing of Hans-Jörg Merkle?
