I'm sure that the Allies thought that that idea was very
counterproductive because of the 'tit for tat' syndrome.
Haven't you heard all the stories of the Luftwaffe strafing downed
allied pilots coming down their chutes
-Mike Marron

That;s all they were- "stories" or fairy tales!

We never tried to shoot down Crew Members in their chutes!

You are thinking of the Japanese.

Just a lesson in how gifted the human mind is in
finding familiar patterns in a stream of input or data.
Some "progressive" people (mis)used this ability as
the springboard to the concept of "sight reading,"
where kids who are learning to read are taught to
try to guess the word based on how it looks. Funny
thing is, if you don't already know how to read (i.e.
your mind has not yet learned what patterns to try to
fit the jumbles into), it doesn't work worth a damn.
