Major Karl-Hermann Lion RK - information sought

I have information on the Feindflüge flown by Karl-Hermann Lion between 1 September 1939 and April 1942 but unfortunately no information on his flights thereafter. He flew back to Germany in May 1942 to be awarded the Knight's Cross for his service leading 9./StG 1, by which time his Feindflüge count was 358.

Lion returned to the Eastern Front in September 1942, before returning west to take over command of I./StG 101 in October 1943 and then I./SG 103 a few weeks later.

Does anyone have access to information on Lion's remaining flights after September 1942? Various sources suggest Lion's final Feindflüge count was around 670 so if anyone has copies of his later Flugbüche or sources that provide more information, I would be very grateful to hear and happy to share any information I have in exchange.
