Re: survivors without a parachute
I seem to recall from memory that the rear gunner, who bailed out without his chute due to fire landed in pine tree's and a snow bank was named Flt Sgt Alkemede. The German's did not believe him, and were after the people who helped him hide his chute, till he explained about the chute release on his harness, I think that was it but nowadays the age thingy is coming more to the front!
