Thanks, Sergei! :thumbsup That's something near what I had guessed. "Руководитель полетов" really stumped me though. How you saw that amazes me :D

ИАП/Д is indeed fighter/interceptor regiment/division.

What does "Уир" mean?

Cheers,
Alex

Looks like
Управление инженерных работ
but there is also something called
УНР (Управление начальников работ)
which is part of УИР.

I think it's not уир but упр, управление.

I agree. It makes more sense, even if the letter itself is a tossup.

Next question: how does one interpret this?

начальник воздушно-огневой и тактической подготовки

"Head of air-fire and tactical training"? What is a more natural translation of "air fire"? :confused:

Thanks!

Air-shooting?:D
Maybe air-combat, air-fighting.

Yes, something like air gunnery or aerial combat.

Help please!
How would you translate French surname
Damoiseau
into Russian?
Thanks,
Sergei

Sergei,

Probably "Дамуазо".
