Grupul 7 Vanatoare de la Prut la Odessa (Iunie-Octombrie 1941) Mr. Ioan Di Cesare had also a contribution. Main topics are: -Beginnings of 7th FG -The German Training school at Pipera Airfield (late '40 and early '41) -Air fights and ground attacks in Bessarabia Campaign -Air fights over Odessa -More than 100 photos A lot of information and the photos are for the first time printed. Anyway, another 100 photos that I intended to use will stay out from editorial reasons. Most of them are from an album offered by 1st Fighter Flotilla to general Jienescu in late 1941. Today, the album belongs to Mr. Di Cesare.
