aircraft destroyed on the ground on Midway June 1942

Hello
This is a question that has been bugging me for a while, in the John Ford film Battle of Midway there is a scene that shows a destoyed biplane and what appears to be a B-17 silver in the background. Also Japanese claimed to have detroyed one B-17 and damaged a second. Also in a interview with John Ford he mentions the destruction of Grumman Duck.
While official reports from Midway dont mention any aircraft lost on the ground?????

Thank you
Santiago
