With regard to the cows on the photograph: during the crash landing a cow was mortally hit, loosing a leg. The surviving herd wasn't very impressed as cows were seen walking over the wing(s) some time after the incident. Wonder if part of the reported 40% damage was caused by that!

Hi Hans, Fantastic information. Under the Swastika on the vertical stabilizer there is painted the werk nummer. Is it possible to see this in the original photo? Many thanks Mr Schmitt
