Missing Air Crew Reports are available from NARA for free. This one, only four pages (other two pages are a handrawn map and a list of next of kin and addresses), is found https://catalog.archives.gov/id/91142972 If you don't know the MACR number you can sometimes get by just using the serial of the aircraft.

This is T/Sgt Olen E St. John KIA during Operation Varsity on March 24th, 1945 On the "Find a Grave" website it says this about him: "He was the child of William Alvin and Ethel Cordie Wood-St. John and brother to 5 siblings: James William(b. 1915 - d.1997) , Charles Wilburn (b. 1918 - d. 1986), Donavan Eugene (b. 1920 - d. 1993), Vera (b. 1922 - d.1993), Billy Joe (b. 1935 - d. 1995) Olan was a member of the Armed Forces (WWII) and family information indicates he was killed in 1944-45, Wesel, Germany - plane crash. We are unable to find a grave and hence this virtual memorial. Yet, his actual memorial may have been and data review is underway - 2016/1//29 Any information regarding Olen will be welcomed."
"Find a Grave" also stated that his "body was lost or destroyed". This strikes me as odd - he clearly was identified by a British GRU and his grave was marked: No 80 is Glen (correct would have been Olen) E. St. John - on this German post-war list he is categorized as "British" - it says that his field grave was located near the "Bahnwärterposten" (signalman's hut) at a railroad crossing. The term "überführt" in the last column suggests that by the time this list was written the remains had already been transferred (translated).
