Red Star # 1173717 aerial gunner (and his pilot!)
10 years ago Ed Haynes posted a nice little ORB bar to Lieutenant Boris Ivanovich SHCHUKIN, the IL-2 pilot of the 766th Ground Assault Aviation Regiment.
Here is the Red Star awarded to aerial gunner TSIRULNIKOV, who flew multiple mission with the pilot SHCHUKIN!
F.ex. here (see image) they flew the mission on 21 Feb 1945 against the enemy concentration at Groß Blumenau (today Kremnevo) near Koenigsberg.
Two interesting airforce related awards! Imagine these were once flown on the same airplane!
The photos are of aerial gunners of 766ShAP with their regiment commander and during training.
