  1. The author was wrong regarding this assumption. My grandfather (on my mom's side) was the top turret gunner on this B-17, and he told me that they grenaded the bomb sight which is why the nose glass was busted, and that they shoved a parachute in a gas tank and tried to set the plane on fire before evading capture... I wish he was still alive so I could ask him more questions!
