8/KG2 Staffelkapitän During the Battle of Britain

I am trying to establish the dates for the Staffelkapitäne of 8/KG2 that served during the Battle of Britain. I have:

Oberleutnant Friedrich-Wilhelm von Stieglitz (01.03.40 to 15.07.40 WiA)
Oberleutnant Werner Morich (16.07.40 est. to 13.08.40 KiA)
Hauptmann Hubertus Lessmann (14.08.40 est, to 15.09.40 WiA)
Hauptmann Martin Küstner (presumably 16.09.40 to the end of the BOB)

Are these correct?

Ooops, thanks Chris, I should have checked your Appendices first!

Did you have any further thoughts on my email re. II/KG2's ops on 11 August?

Peter
