I wonder why his kill markings are white stars instead of black crosses or swastika's?

The Soviet pilot rarely used black crosses or swastikas as they felt it was great affront to decorate their aircraft with the marking of the hated fascists. They would use anything from roses to stars. While some Russian aces used black crosses or swastikas, this form of marking was frowned upon by the Soviet Hig Command. However, the Normandie-Niemen squadron, French volunteers, in the cause of defeating the German war machine did mark their kills in this way.
