Having been part of the "team" behind that book, I can say that there are no news on that episode, apart from the consideration that such claims had no eyewitnesses to corroborate them.

This, added to the fact that the USAAF pilot did violently threw-up upon his landing means that there was a lot of stamina involved and that this doesn't go well with an accurate and reliable post-action report...

Facts like that often occurred in the heath of battle and the fact of being alone certainly did add to that.

P.S. Bear also in mind that by mid-November 1944 there were really very few LW and ANR units in the area of the episode and if no evidence was found at all, something simply doesn't add.
