Oh, right. There was also the case of the RAF rear-gunner who dropped
about 15k w/o a parachute. I believe the Germans gave him a certificate
to certify the fact.


Tailgunner in a Sunderland Flying Boat over Norway IIRC.
The whole turret was blown off the back of the aircraft
hit a steep slope covered with deep snow and rolled to a stop.
