And so we come to Russia.
German Third Squad is fighting a hard infantry war in Russia. Opposing the Germans, Red Air Force Major Lukin is disgusted to receive inexperienced women bomber pilots with inferior airplanes as reinforcements. Even though suffering high casualties, the women also inflict heavy casualties on the Germans. Third Squad begins to loathe their raids as personal attacks.

Battlefields: The Night Witches
Kurt Graf; Feldwebel Scholz; Sepp; Gloomy Fozo; Kosher Trenk; German soldiers of Third Squad; Guards-Major Aleksandr Lukin; Lieutenant Anna Kharkova [Anna Borisnova Kharkova]; Soviet night bombers; Lieutenant Zoya Zelenko; Russian girl
We must be out of our minds.
At Zoya's suggestion, Anna wins the approval of Lukin and others by gliding in silently for five kilometers, so as to make bombing attacks without warning the enemy. Finding a young Russian girl near a crashed night bomber, Scholz declares without evidence that she is a Night Witch, and decrees that the squad members will each rape her before killing her. Graf does not participate actively, earning Scholz's rage. Lukin and Anna begin to warm toward each other.

Battlefields: The Night Witches
Kurt Graf; Feldwebel Scholz; Sepp; Gloomy Fozo; Kosher Trenk; German soldiers of Third Squad; Guards-Major Aleksandr Lukin; Captain Anna Kharkova [Anna Borisnova Kharkova]; Lieutenant Zoya Zelenko
Heard you land.
Anna and Lukin develop a romantic and sexual relationship. Fighting intensifies as Third Squad joins the army trying to break though to German troops trapped at Stalingrad. Lukin and the entire fighter squadron are killed in one action. Anna and Zoya are shot down, with Zoya killed, in Third Squad's sector. Reviving his humanity, Graf captures and conceals Anna in hopes of saving her. She stabs him in the back, steals his machine gun, wipes out his squad, takes the Feldwebel's coat, and sets off back to her lines through a snowstorm.
