There were two B-17s reported lost that day in the ETO and some sources have AG claiming one of them. This article appears to suggest that "Struggle Buggy" was downed by a German fighter rather than prop wash as was commonly believed:

"Struggle Buggy" was the last AC lost by the 94th BG in the war. The pilot was on his 2nd mission and managed to bail out. The rest of the crew were KIA.
