Query regarding casualties

This article lists one British "killed in action" in the infobox. Later in the text, it elaborates that this was the result of a drowning. Is there a source that confirms this? There seems a possibility that this is incorrect. In John Durnford-Slater's account of the operation, he states that this man was initially believed to have drowned, but was later confirmed alive and to have been captured by the Germans (see p. 32 of Commando: Memoirs of a Fighting Commando in World War Two - full details in sources section of the article). Can anyone help clear this up? Cheers. AustralianRupert (talk) 10:24, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
