Hello,
Squadron letters "8R" and aircraft in squadron letter "A+" would to me mean the 489th Bomber Group 846th Bomber Squadron.
From the "Heavy Bombers of the Mighty Eighth by Adams and Andrews I could find the following -
42-94817 FTR 1st Sept 44 Salvaged 14th November 44.
No MACR but would be an accident report I expect.
All the best
Alex
