Still on your Normandie-Niemen project ?

[Evgeny Velichko]

Many - pls keep in mind claims of VVS pilots, who operated in same area and time with NN.

[Many Souffan]

Hello Laurent

Thank you.

And yes for my bio about Marcel Albert and my project Normandie-Niemen.

Hello Evgeny

It's a long time that I look for the diaries with losses and victories of Sister russian units of 303 IAD.

Sometimes the diary of N-N said it was a French/Russian patrol, but not often.

Thank you.

[Ota Jirovec]

Hello Many,

I understand that your praiseworthy aim is to match the claims of Marcel Albert/Normandie-Niemen with Luftwaffe losses to find his/their potential victims. What Evgeny probably meant to say is that without taking into consideration the (possibly numerous) claims of not only 303 IAD, but of many other IADs of Soviet VVS operating in the same area(s) as Normandie-Niemen, you will get only premature results and that conclusions "who shot down whom" may be in some cases even misleading.

Hello Ota.

Thank you very much.

Of course I agree with you.

But with Interviews, diaries, log book, combat reports with drawings, official documents y ou can minimize some mistakes.

Thank you

[Nikita Egorov]

The majority of claims against Bf-110s on this date goes not to sister-regiments of 303 IAD, but to pilots of 322 IAD.

Many:

What losses NN had on 14 july?

[Many Souffan]

Hello Evgeny.

As I said to Nikita there was only one French loss: Lt Charles de Tedesco in his Yak-9 coded white 4 between 2 and 4 PM approx.

Thank you
