Comrade Bragin.

Senior Lieutenant Demyan Bragin has only flown 16 sorties and has 22 kills consisting of 20 fighters and 2 heavy bombers and 36 ground kills consisting of 25 transport vehicles and 11 heavy weapons. He is stationed at Khimki and flies a MiG-3 for the 27th IAP. Hurrah for Comrade Bragin. S/Lt Bragin told our reporter 'I serve the Soviet Union. death to the fascist invader'
