There is a picture of a B2 Flammwagen (i.e. a Char B1-bis with a flamethrower) knocked out by British Paratroopers in Osterbek, Holland in September 1944 and according to Chamberlain & Doyle: "Encyclopedia of German tanks...", nine B2 Flammwagen were still in the inventory of Panzerkompanie 233 (Eastern Front or Balkans?) by 30. December 1944.
