Aviation Archaeology of harvard types??

Hi all, I just wondered out of all you avid Aviation archaeologists out there ,if any of you, or have you ever heard of a Harvard training aircraft ever being recovered from a crash site, I was talking to someone who has been involved in aviation archaeology since the 1970s, and others, and it seems most recoveries were after the fighter losses, or bombers ,
I wonder if anyone has ever considered or recovered a harvard site??. my interest is due to my own interest in training types, and never personally hearing of any harvard recoveries,??. It would be interesting if anything to know if these training types bury themselves the same as a larger faster aircraft , or do they just pancake, the oxford /Anson for example, due to there lightness, ive never heard of one being recovered, and certainly not anything like a engine buried at 20ft, like say a dive in spitfire… ,:confused::)
