St Kap 3.(F)/31 1940

On 1 Sep 39 the St Kap was recorded as Hptm Boriskow/Borsikov but I can see no details in Larry & Doug's lists.
By 10 May 1940 it was Hptm Kurt Schulze-Wiehenbrauch but I have a photo taken at the start of the BofB which shows and names Hptm Johannes Sieckenius as the St Kap. Can anyone confirm or deny any of this?

We have both names....................another case of misspellings resulting in duplication and confusion.

Thanks for the "heads up"!
