[Milsurplus] Interphone question

[Jack Antonio]

In a typical WWII heavy bomber installation,
were the gunners jackboxes wired to allow
them access to the command radio?

I thought they were, but in a movie I saw
over the holidays, there was a scene where
the radio op was instructed to "rig up
an extension so the General could talk
on the command radio", the General using
the top turret to observe formation flying.

Thanks

Jack
