Re: Hartmann had fight with Pokryshkin? Who has beaten Hartman?

On a related topic, I know matching up who fought who in aerial combat is often very difficult and often impossible. However, this thread prompted another question for me in this vein. In the Toliver-Constable book "The Blond Knight of Germany", a combat is described in which Hartmann attacks and shoots down a Soviet fighter who is on his wingman's 6 and about to shoot him down. The Soviet fighter pilot, who was ejected on impact of the crash, is described as a captain and carrying a large amount of money and the narrative suggests this is someone of some prominence. Provided this combat and its particulars are true, does anyone know who the vanquished pilot was? Was he a Soviet ace? Again, I totally understand that identification is difficult and may be impossible.

Thanks much,
Kenneth
