Every nation considers spying to be a crime, particularly during times of war. Their own spies are exempted, of course. It's only a crime if some other nation is doing it.
Yes, that is normal practice for all major powers.
First question is: Do you know that there were any executed in the USSR during WW2? Next by whom, the Axis on Soviet territory or the USSR itself? Do you know the name of the US Army Aircorps (US Airforce did not exist until 1947) personnel supposed to have been executed in the USSR? Those answers will make tracking down info easier in archives. If USAAC personnel were executed for treason, desertion or spying, it is likely that their bodies were buried in unmarked graves. The US did so in 1942 to the captured German spies upon execution and we disposed of those executed during the Nuremburg War Crimes trials by cremation and scattering at a secret location.
