Re: 02Apr45 USAAF & VVS dogfight
No. Those were clearly American P-38s, not mysterious German fighters. Peter Kassak said contacted 14th FG pilot who participated the incident, but nobody hit anyone. He did not even fire a shot. Soviet report also says Grigoriev disappeared, so nobody knows exactly what had happened to him. One of the 34 (14 FG) P-38 pilots sweep the Vienna area was Lt. Joe Onesty who was almost hit by one of the Yaks ("MiGs"). Story is also written in John W. Lambert: The 14th Fighter Group in World War II., p.126.
