Русский в Eagle Squadron

[RB]

Вот нашел интересный факт..В своей книге William R. Dunn упоминает о некотором Русском друге Andrew Mamedoff (хотя якобы по другим источником он числится как Американец). Так вот в интернете нашел только вот такое краткое описание:
"P/O Andrew 'Andy' Mamedoff RAF No: 81621 was an American and had signed originally to fight for Finland against Russia, but arrived in Europe too late for that war. After a spell in France, he came to England on the last ship from the port of St Jean-de-Luz and joined the R.A.F. He was accepted by the RAF and on July 5 then went to 7 O.T.U. Hawarden. He was sent to No 609 Squadron on the 8th of August 1940 and they became operational on the 16th of August on his first patrol encountered the enemy. He saw combat during August - September, before transferring on the 18th of September 1940 to help form the No 71 'Eagle' Squadron at Kirton-in-Lindsey, Lincoinshire. "

Интересно есть ли у кого-нибудь какая-нибудь информация о нем?

The first all-American Squadron formed was No.71 Squadron, based at Church Fenton near York, although for a while they were commanded by British Officers. The first recruits were three pilots that had joined the RAF earlier in the year, seeing combat with No.609 squadron at Warmwell during the Battle of Britain. These were Eugene ‘Red’ Tobin, Andrew Mamedoff and Vernon ‘Shorty’ Keough and they joined on September 19th 1940.

Worse news was to follow as word came through that there were no survivors. Flt. Lt Andrew Mamedoff, recently married crashed at Ballaskeig, Maughold; Pilot officer Roy Stout crashed at Snaefell Mines; Pilot Officer Hugh McCall at North Laxey Mines; Pilot Officer William White's aircraft crashed at Ballafayle - he had baled out over the sea and his body was recovered six weeks later on the beach below Ballafayle.

Among them was one of the original three Eagles, experienced pilot Flight Lieutenant Andrew Mamedoff, from Thomson, Connecticut, who was to be Flight Leader on the day.
