Mikhail Dmitrievich Baranov

Good morning Gentlemen,

what is the story behind the often-quoted 28 shared kills of Mikhail Dmitrievich Baranov ?
I found them in "Yakovlev Aces of World War 2" by Mellinger for example.
But this website
http://soviet-aces-1936-53.ru/abc/b/baranov_md.htm
clearly indicates he had no shared kills.

Cheers,

Michael

...this website
http://airaces.narod.ru/all1/baran_md.htm
mentions that sometimes 28 group kills are cited but doesn't include them in the kill list that it provides.

Re: Mikhail Dmitrievich Baranov

...update: now his kill list is reduced to a total of 23 with no shared kills.

But what about the well-known photos of his Yak-1 adorned with 24 stars ?
