Oh, I only saw the korea clue now....damn, 
Could have gotten there 3 seconds faster.
I intended that clue as a dead giveaway lol!
Apparently (after some investigation), the Invader in the picture may very well be the one in this photo!
"On October 22, 1944, the aircraft Douglas A-26B-15-DT Invader (43-22342), piloted by Eugene L. Casale and John Jr. as the only crew member Hurek, returned to their base in England after a trip to Morocco, when the aircraft began to have problems; around half past eleven (am) the Invader flew and rolled over several times to try to land at Laxe beach but seeing that it was impossible to change course and headed to the Traba´s beach where they landed on it´s belly. Quickly began to reach people and two crew members refused to descend until the authorities had arrived; then they burned all documentation (it is clear that the Americans did not trust the Spanish authorities knew that these documents come to the Germans). Later the aircraft was dismantled, leaving only the structure was then scrapped and taken to Santiago."
But the picture was taken in the mid 1950's.... had 10 years really passed since its accident on the beach? Did it take that long to get it scrapped or was it in the process of dismantling in the photo (missing prop as evidence)? Maybe the photo was taken at Santiago? Who knows.
