RUSSIAN ROULETTE
by Robert Taylor
A
Soviet Yak 3 hurtles towards us in a typically daring head-on
attack on a Bf109. Other Yaks wheel and turn frantically in
search of the enemy. Casualties on both sides are evident.
Away into the distant horizon stretches a vast Russian sky,
painted in Robert’s inimitable style: soon all will
be quiet again until the next ferocious encounter.
Each
print is individually signed by SIX fighter Aces of the Russian
Front having flown between them over 3316 missions, achieving
547 air victories. Joining two top Russian Aces, both heroes
of the Soviet Union, and two leading Luftwaffe Aces, are two
highly decorated fighter Aces from the legendary Free French
Normandie-Niemen Squadron.
