ID of He111:E with Condor Legion insignia, Luftwffe Tail Markings and code "72"

Hello,

Thanks for everyone's help on previous pre-war bomber markings. Here's another one:

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...0%3D%26fvi%3D1

Can anyone explain these markings? Luftwaffe code "72" should be KG257, but with national marking for Condor Legion. However, aircraft in the background with same code has Luftwaffe tail markings. Says this is at "Rangesdorf." Also, what is the unit insignia on the nose? Looks a little like a version of the KG55 insignia but it clearly is not.

Thanks for any help on this.
