JU-87 Unit ID help

Can any of the esteemed members help ID the unit of the JU-87s on the attached photos, note the bomb load? My JU-87 references are rather limited. The insignia looks like it might be from a unit within St G 1. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

both from I./StG3 (former I./StG76) most likely from 1.Staffel, Balkans April 1941.

I concur. It is the insignia of I./St.G. 3 as illustrated on page 100 of our book, Dive-Bomber and Ground-Attack Units of the Luftwaffe, by H.L. deZeng and D.G. Stankey.

The bomb-load looks ordinary to me
