B-17 44-8713 96th BG

Does anyone have any info on this B-17? 96th BG ( Square 'C' on tail ). 413th BS.

B-17 Flying Fortress website has it returning to Kingman for salvage in late 1945.

I have come across a picture of it's tail section apparently crashed, and was taken by a soldier possibly near Kassel near the end of the war.

Crash landed, salvaged (repaired) returned to USA?
