Problems with established 2. and 3./StG77 insignia supposedly used during the WC of 1940?

Chris,

I'm familiar with the photo you posted. I suspect that this is a variant of the 9./StG77 emblem, a diving eagle clutching a bomb (or in this case a torpedo?). I don't think that this is a 1940-period emblem. Also note the mountains in the background. This could be the Balkans early 1941, but I'm just speculating here. Thanks for checking your photo data base for me.

Regards,
