The vote which wasn't
For a long time the article has stated that after their aircraft was hit by flak, the crew voted on whether or not to continue on the raid, and decided to return home. Unreferenced of course. On the stuff.co.nz site today there is a story entitled "Dambuster myth debunked in final weeks of surviving members life", in which it states that Munro was determined to put that story to rest before he died. Munro said that not only did a vote not take place, but it could not have taken place because all communications were knocked out. He said it was his dicision to return, and he sent a note back to the crew to tell them what was going on. The interesting story is here. I removed the bit from the article.

 * Interesting. I reckon that the fact that the "vote" was a myth, and that is was well-known, is worth adding to the article, now that we've got a reliable source for this. Thoughts?  Schwede 66  05:37, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Agree. It will also help avoid future editors adding it back in as "truth", which may well happen given how well known the myth is. QuiteUnusual (talk) 08:05, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
