Poetic Obituaries: [José Maria] Bravo, however, remained in

the Soviet Union and became a professor of Spanish at Moscow State University. He was an expert on Russian poetry and translated many of the classics of Russian literature into Spanish. In 1960 he was allowed to return to Spain by the Franco regime.

In 2007 Bravo published his memoirs, El seis doble (double-six), a reference to the domino piece that was painted on the tail fin of his unit's planes.
