The image below is of part of the Bomber Command Loss Card for Lancaster W5008, which was shot down over Nuernberg in the early hours of 28.08.43.
I can make out most of the text, but would be very grateful for some help with a few words.
In relation to Perry (mid-upper gunner) and Crowther (rear gunner), the text appears to say 'reported dead by German authorities, {…} reply received {...} time of a/c being abandoned, believed killed'.
Is it perhaps 'up to time of ...'?
As for the final line, I can make out the word 'not' and little else.
