Umbrella in a bombsight insignia of 1./KG30

Hello,

Several of us in the EOE Working Group are debating about the above insignia of 1./KG30, which apparently was created before the famous Gesch diving eagle on a colored shield was used. This insignia has appeared in several publications as that of 1./KG30, but I've seen evidence that it may have been used by I./KG30, and not just 1. Staffel. Initially this appeared on the forward fuselage, but then was later moved to the outboard engine nacelles when the Gesch insignia started being applied. Does anyone have any conclusive evidence either way on this issue?

Regards,
