Stab II./LG 2 Dec 40 badge

The Bf 109 E-7 of Oblt Viktor Kraft, Kompaniechef of II./LG 2, is said to have had a badge described as a British coat of arms of three lions with a the motto "Honi soit qui mal y pense" disfigured by a spear. Personal or was it adapted more generally later?

The coat of arms of Jersey was used by Stab II./LG 2 from June 1940 until spring 1941.

Thanks Gerhard. This would have been the basis then:

Any photographic references or reasons why Jersey?
