Re: JG 77 victories

Dmitiriy Privet,
Thank you for the Flak claims but there was only 3 Pe-2 reported as lost this day, according to the book “Небо Над Харьковом Май 1942”. Leytenants Boris Kireev and Saveliy Chebykin of 431 ShAP were reported as MIA and Mladishiy Leytenant Andrey Muravskiy of 285 ShAP also MIA. The Yak-1 of Leytenant Mikhail Solyanov 273 IAP was MIA, Mayor Yakov Titaev was MIA and Leytenant Dmitiriy Kol’tsov was MIA. These are among the known to me. I have nothing on the ones that survived with emergency landings. I have read a number of cases that the Flak units inflicted damage and the aircraft on returning were finished off by fighters.
