Question A Possible "Deaths Head" Luger Explanation

I am currently watching a BBC documentary on World War I. In the second episode of the series, it points out that that Crown Prince of Germany had his own regiment, and that the emblem, or insignia for this regiment was the "Deaths Head." In the documentary it showed a picture of him with such an emblem on his hat. Perhaps this topic has been address somewhere else on this forum; however, I thought I would share this information with those who might be interested. And I am including a small picture of Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm. Perhaps this information explains the origin of the Deaths Head Luger.
