Medivac C-47 shoot down

I believe i read somewhere that in late 1944 a USAAF medivac C-47 got lost in bad weather flew over German lines and was shot down by flak. The crew was all taken POW. Included in the crew was a female flight nurse who was possibly the only US female POW of the ETO. Is this accurate?
