[Dénes Bernád]

Diego, for Pokryshkin's 1941 activity you may consult my book, 'From Barbarossa to Odessa', which gives a day-by-day account on the air activity of all sides on the Southern flank of the Eastern Front up to mid-October 1941.

Here is an excerpt regarding Pokryshkin (vol. 1, page 58): "3 July 1941. (...) At 0715, the still relatively unknown fighter pilot, St. lt. Alexander Pokryshkin, claimed his first official victory over a 'PZL-24' over Strasheni (...). No matches can be found in Rumanian documents and the ARR did not lose a single fighter aircraft that day."
