Re: Identity Red Air Force losses to German night fighters SE Europe 1944?

If the soviet August 10/11, 1944 Yugoslav partisan supply-drop mission report gives local time for the night-fighter attack, then the difference between гв.л-т Федоров Геннадий Георгиевич's and Oblt. Wilhelm Johnen's report is only 3 minutes!!!! 02:05 - 02:08 AM! Very remarkable accuracy... (But as we know, гв.л-т Федоров's plane escaped with 75 holes, - did not crash. However, their success did not last too long as in a few days, on August 21/22, 1944 they failed to return from another Yugoslav supply-drop mission...)
