Default B-52 crashes - back to B-2

U.S. B-52 bomber crashes off Guam, 6 crew missing
A U.S. B-52 bomber that was due to fly in a Liberation Day parade in the
U.S. territory of Guam on Monday crashed into the Pacific Ocean soon
after take-off, news reports and officials said.

----
In February, a B-2 stealth bomber, which costs around $1.2 billion,
crashed at Andersen Air Force Base on Guam. The two pilots on board
ejected safely.


I have a probably trivial and ignorant question, the B-2 crash.
Recently here (or on a similar ng) there was a picture of the
B-2, showing it basicly intact, belly down, with what
appeared to me to be the airport fire truck nearby it.

Did it's crew eject after it was 'down'?
Or, , , ?
