BW239 Buffalo and B-25 bomber - Darmstadt Germany

Going through my collection of Air Combat 1939-1945 magazines, I came accross this old article in Air Combat Volume 3 1970 by the late great Richard Bueschel who wrote many of the old Aircam Japanese fighter series.

The article is titled "I Didn't get the Name" and includes a nice collection of Luftwaffe FW-190s. Among the pictures is a picture of a Brewster BW239 fuselage with apparent Belgian markings. In the caption to the photograph he mentions the fuselage of an "wrecked American B-25 with very old insignia"
Enclosed is the scan from the magazine of the BW239 fuselage along with a picture of a wrecked B-25 I obtained from an expired E-Bay auction. Whether the B-25 is the same one mentioned by Richard is moot but it was from an album of a German soldier.

It's a long shot but does anyone have any information about either one of these two airplanes?
