Hi There,
This information was passed to me about an aircraft in Feb '45 which was on a raid to Hehenbudberg, Apparently, they were attacked by two Bf 109s at around 06.30. The official story was that the rear gunner was hit and killed in the first attack and the rear gunner claimed a 'probable' in the second attack. The 'scuttlebutt' on return was that the Mid-Upper gunner had accidentally shot the rear gunner. This story circulated around the camp for days. The rest of the crew continued to fly together and the aircraft was not transferred, as some others were after fatalities.

Looks like it was just a rumour.

Thanks for the reply.

Alan
