Re: Major Kitayev, 3 Eskadra, 3 Pulku LSz
Franklin,
I can find no references for Kitayev.
but then again Profile Publications #88 is probably no more accurate than # 185 (on the Yak-9) that lists "Sasha" Pokryshkin as flying a Yak-9.
rediculous!

P.F.

Re: Major Kitayev, 3 Eskadra, 3 Pulku LSz
According to the 2-volume HSU encyclopedia Nikolai Mikhailovich Kitayev (born 22 May 1919), escadrille C.O. of 3rd Polish ShAP, 4th Polish SAD receiced the HSU award 15 May 1946 after 106 missions. There is however no expliciet reference to any ships sunk (which naturally does not exclude that this took place/or was claimed).
