Captured Aircraft Questions

I am researching a B-17 that belly-landing on a German airfield in March of 1944. I have obtained the MARC and the Captured Aircraft Report (which is hard to read)

Pulled from Captured Aircraft report
-Belly Landed -20% Damaged
-"salvaged by special troops"

Does salvaged by special troops mean salvaged for scrap? Any chance that this plane would have been salvaged for use? Any idea of who the special troops would be? Is there a list of planes that the Germans salvaged for scrap or for intel? If anyone knows alot about the KG200, I have a few additional questions.
