On March 4, 1945, 6 B-24's bombed Zurich Switzerland, a neutral country, by accident with explosives and incendiaries killing 5.

In June, a board headed by actor James Stewart, himself a B-24 pilot, investigated and found the crews not guilty of wrongfully and negligently caused bombs to be dropped in friendly territory

The board blamed the accident on weather and equipment malfunction.

Jimmy Stewart was a MAN ... he was also funny as hell
Any Dean Martin Roast he was on was The Most Memorable ... take your pick (yep that good)
