Breuer, William. Shafow Warriors: The Covert War in Korea.
NY: John Wiley & Sons, 1996. P.223, "Soviet pilots were
flying combat missions over North Korea." P. 224, "...the solid
red star of the Soviet air force was painted on fuselages and wings,
rather than Chinese or North Korean markings. Also, for nearly
two years, UN pilots had reported hearing Russian voices on
the radios when engaged in dogfights, and, periodically, they
saw "Caucasian faces' under billowing parachutes after a MiG-15
pilot leaped from his damaged plane. Moreover, many of the
enemy pilots were so skilled that the U.S. flyers felt they had
to be Russian."

P.116-126, 179-181. "Of course, the North Korean Air Force
was not all Korean, but basically Chinese with Russian and Polish
pilots as well. Further, there is substantial reason to believe that
most of the fighter squadrons actively engaging the F-86s were
Soviet squadrons being rotated through the front at six-week
intervals." MiG-Alley
