[WWI] Junkers CL.I post WWI?

[Helen and Chris]

Colin asked
        I was wondering if there were any other users of the Junkers CL.I in the immediate post WWI period other than Germany? 
           

The Latvians acquired at least one (serial number 12921/18) which was abandoned by the retreating German army.  It was in a pretty poor state - no engine and in need of structural repair.

It finally got airborne again in 1921 when it crash landed on its first flight. It was pranged again in early 1922 and was not repaired.

They also acquired 1803/18 but for reasons I don't know, the Latvians never used it and it passed into the hands of the Red Air Force.  It remained in service until the early 1930's.

The CL.I was used by volunteer units fighting the Bolsheviks in Estonia, Finland and Lithuania. I know no more than that.
