It's like when a pigeon flies in to a window and leaves a dusty imprint.

Here's another Kamikaze attack on the USS Himsdale APA120. The planes bombs exploded in the engine room killing all but one and the ship was out of action for the rest of the war.

I hadn't read about her service in the Pacific in 1944 and had just assumed she served in the Atlantic only. Thus, the German bomber imprint. I looked closely for some hair, teeth and eyeballs but none were found.

No, the wings don't match. I remember the Stuka being annoyingly slow (easy target for guns).
This was a Japanese aircraft; the Ki-51 Sonia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsubishi_Ki-51
