Yes, I know it has been years, just found this old post!

So if I read correctly, are you saying that there is also an Appendix B to the Barzeele Report available at The National Archives.  Would it be in the same location of WO208/3350  IS9/WEA/MB1117?

I am seeking an evader report for RCAF member R128361 WO2 Cyril Simeon Barzeele shot down on 12/13 May 44.  I have a copy of his Appendix C from WO208/3350 in the UK National Archives, but have had no luck finding the main report.  The researcher I employed to do the search checked the card file and it indicated: “Main report not distributed.  App. C only (List 3.  IS9/WEA/MB1117)". 
Have checked military archives and national archives in Canada with no success, although Canadian military records have a document called a Loss of Bomber Aircraft report that refers to a "K Report", which I am not familiar with .  As well, the US National Archives and Records Administration has no reference to Barzeele's evader report.  Any suggestions as to other possible sources for the main report?
