eBay: Allied intrest

[Tom Willis]

Clearly Blenheim IV - R3606 has been moved from it's original resting place to either the outskirts of the existing landing field or to another location. But if to another location why?
The usual practice was for the recovery units (Bergebattalions) to recover enemy aircraft for either further examination or scrapping etc. Any large collections of Allied enemy equipment were put into temporary Beute-Sammlung (Collection points) to see what was to be salvaged - aircraft were usually dealt with at the various airfields where they were to be initially located at and dealt with there en-masse. Odd aircraft could be found at the Collection points but this was rare.
These photos of odd Blenheim wrecks appear to be from one perhaps the same location and moved to the edges of open fields - this was sometimes done if the Germans wanted this as a new or a dummy-airfield with existing usually French aircraft used as decoys. If the Germans wanted to use a particular piece of land (possibly ex French or an Allied landing ground for themselves then any wrecks would be shipped to the edges of the field and could be left there for some time. Sorry I cannot comment on whether the locxations are at Amiens or Bolougne.
