parachute positionning in a He111

here is a strange question:

I was told that in a He111, only the pilot had his parachute duly strapped on him (he was ready to bail out, then)

whereas the other guys had to grab their parachute somewhere in the fuselage, attach it, then they could bail out.

As far as you know, is this true ??...

Thanks guys

GC
