When a B-17 was badly hit during a bomb raid, and had diffculties to follow her Combat Box, the pilot would drop the bombs in emergnecy to ligthen his ship. If the pilot was killed right away in a frontal atttack for instance, who else would be in a position to do it ; the copilot, I guess, and probably the bombardier, but was there any mechnical lever or a switch that someone else could use if necessaey to jettisson the bombs in a salvo.
