Re: Lvov-Sandomierz operation July 1944

Yes, at least the 9.GIAD (Pokryshkin) was moved from Bessarabia northwards especially for the Lvov-Sand.-operation. They were not sent there because of being equipped with Airacobras, but because they were such a crack unit, I assume.

It's just strange, because in May/June '44 in the region of Jassy, there were also more P-39 then soviet-built types...
