"Once in Russia the 77th was posted to a Moscow airfield where they practiced aerial intercepts with the Soviet PVO. Once deemed combat worthy by Soviet commanders, the AVG began Combat Air Patrols over Moscow. The Triple 7’s achieved their first victory on December 26th, 1941 when a Ju-88 recon aircraft was shot down near Moscow. After a few months in Moscow the 77th was ordered to the Southern Sector to help defend Stalingrad. The Triple 7’s scored 27 victories over Moscow without losing a single plane or pilot. Most victims were lone recon aircraft or wayward German bombers. It was a great learning experience for the squadron which up until then had never seen combat."

Кто , что об этом знает? Был очень сильно удивлён.
Я слышал о Полтаве и "челночных рейдах", о "Нормандии" естественно, о испанских добровольцах, но это.....
Как-то фантастично звучит..
