Experience of a downed B52 crew appears in Drakonfin's A Land of Sad Songs which is well worth a read. A Finnish Protect and Survive.
To be fair, it is an exceptionally, unrealistically positive fate, all things considered. They get captured by the Finns, interrogated and then held as POWs/ interned by an intact Finnish military organization. They are even eventually allowed to leave Finland for Sweden only months later, with the chance of getting back to the US (such as it is) later on.
By P&S standards, it's a bona fide feelgood story (by design).
Thank you for the kind words for the TL, BTW.
