Re: VMF Raid to Constanza 1943 frm Gelendjik
Note the Russian Navy Opersvodka mention A-20J and not G .....Irronically the raid leader
like in similar cases with Army Air Corps pilots who flew to Romanian targets or fell captive to the
Romanians was later on MIA on Korean conflict over Pacific when his IL-28 torpedo bomber vanished.
Read the background story on Bizinashvilli, Fokin and Gen.Tokarev (then Col ) who elected Fokin as leader instead
of Bizinashvilli- I tried many years to get hold of the Recon photos shot by Maslov's crew though nobody seems to
have them .
