Luftwaffe bomber losses on Lentini raid, Aug. 1943.

Hi everybody,
Does anybody have details of the losses of the Luftwaffe bomber units that took part in the night raid on Lentini and Agnone LGs in Sicily on 11/12 August 1943.
From the books 'Bomber units of the Luftwaffe 1933-45' Vols. 1 & 2, I have the following units that took part: KG 6, KG 54, KG 76 and possibly KG 77, all with Ju88s.
KG 54 reported a loss of a Ju88 over Lentini. I believe 3 or 4 others were lost to night fighters and Ack Ack.
Any info gratefully received.
Doug
