crash landing in Naxos, 1943

Found some info on a ju52 that made an emergency landing in Naxos island (1943) in the year 1943. Close to the village Koronos. The story goes that the villagers dismantled the aeroplane before the Germans could come to retrieve it. In this site, close to the end of the page: http://koronosnews.blogspot.com/under the date 21-5-2009 there is a short article with the above info and two photos of some fuselage skins still in use as doors in the village. Well, now you know what to do next time you pass through Naxos next summer!Would it be possible to connect these admittedly very scarce informations with any particular aircraft? Is the photograph of the ju 52 (_ _+GL) visible in the site in any way connected with the plane in question?Thank you very much
