Against Germany pilots of distant bombing aircraft have entered operations on June, 22nd.
To the majority of crews of the ships practically at once after the beginning of war instead of strategic, steels it is put problems on destruction of "manpower" of the enemy, ?.? the dalne-bombing aircraft as a matter of fact worked as front, destructive cover because of confusion of the first days of war wasn't allocated that finally has led to huge losses of staff and technics among dalne-bombing aircraft.

Unknown persons there were hundreds "Stalin falcons".

Numbers of all Soviet aviation regiments,  are unknown authentically even to air blows at a dawn and the whole day long on June, 22nd, not to mention ranks and surnames of their commanders, about the concrete facts of their fighting activity. Till now it is not counted up, how many crews ??, ??-3 and Su-2 hasn't returned from self-destructive departures without destructive cover. Departed not to immortality, in a non-existence.

It, the missing person, but up to the end executed the soldier's duty that behind an avaricious phrase in documents "the crew simply disappears hasn't returned from the fighting task" and to those terrible days of 41st and this company about those terrible and tragical, first days of great war is devoted...
