JG 52 victories

[Nokose]

I bought the book "A Dance with Death Soviet Airwomen in World War II" by Anne Noggle a few years ago and found the following. 125 BAP (all female bomber unit except a few male gunners) raided German positions at Krymskaya on 02 June 1943. Nine Pe-2 were led by Yevgeniya Timofeyeva the regiment's deputy commander. They left the target with no fighter escort. Five of the Pe-2 were shot down by Bf 109. Mariya Dolina received the HSU for this mission. They claimed to have shot down four German fighters but none appeared to have went down.
