Chuck -

I'm a little late to the party, but this is certainly a Camel from all visual indications.

As to the covering/camo., the pilot's first job after landing behind German lines is destroying the airplane if possible. That doesn't look like it happened!

In the absence of that, the Brit artillary would have attempted to shell it if they were sure their man was out. it desroys the airframe and any curious Germans nearby. Of course they would have to have line of sight to the airplane.

I suspect the camo was the Germans doing trying to avoid giving the Brit artillary an easily recognizable target.

My 2 cents...
