Larry...

You mention III.KG76's emblem from Rolfe & Ketley's publication. The description of that emblem, no.352 on page 55, states it was introduced in the winter of 1942-43. A picture of it and be seen in the excellent Airdoc No2 title, Junkers Ju88A/D by Henry Hoppe, at the bottom of page 28.

You are also looking for othe KG76 badges. If you haven't already seen it, you may the attached of interest, as it seems to show badge no.346 from 'Rolfe & Ketley', KG76 'Florian Geyer'. This was apparently used between 1939 & 1941, and I believe this pic comes from an e-bay selection of long ago.
