My uncle Solomon Schuster is listed here. I just received the declassified documents. Is it possible someone/decedents would know any stories about what happened to my uncle?

Hey Sara,
since no one of the crew survived, there won’t be much stories or details.
Here’s the MACR
https://catalog.archives.gov/id/90904092
The MACR includes translated pages from German reports.
Unfortunately the German report KU 352 is not (yet?) available online.
