Hi RT

What proof does the picture show that the Germans built up any Battles!!!

The Battle wrecks (with a few Blenheims & Hurricanes) were not collected by the Germans but by an RAF Maintenance Unit. All of the wrecks were collected to be shipped back to the UK for possible repair & rebuild. They were all marked with the Type/date and damage status but these were from RAF stencils. All what you see is how the Germans found the wrecks.
