Like I said above, I read this story in Neitzel’s book with a specific SRA report cited as the source. Those reports are in the AIR40/ series at the National Archives. I’ve been using them for years and have no doubt as to their authenticity. They record real conversations between real people and the transcripts are usually available both in the original German and an English translation. As you can see from the image that John posted, Dr. Taylor also puts a reference against this passage which can be checked in her source notes.
