Staffelkapitaen 5/Stg77 early June 1942

Hello,
I wonder if anyone would know the Staffelkapitaen of 5/Stg77 on 2nd June 1942? I would be very grateful if someone could provide me with this information.
I am researching the career of a Bordfunker called Unteroffizier Hans Bottenenberg 5/StG77 who was lost over Sevastopol on 2nd June 1942. If anyone has any information as to his loss and who was his pilot on this flight, I would be even more grateful!
Thank-you and regards,
Andy

Are you in touch with Steven Sheridan as I believe I sent him the info on Bottenberg? Guess he has some documents as well

Hello Chris,
That was quick! I am sorry but I don't know Stephen Sheridan. Does he contribute to this board? How can I contact him?
Regards,
Andy

I think, in that period of time, Staffel-Kpt. of 5./St.G.77 was Hptm. Heinz-Günter Amelung

According to my notes, Amelung left on 31 March 1942.
Unfortunately, I don't have the name of his successor. Ludigkeit ?

Yes, thats wright, it was Staffelkapitän Hptm. Günter Lüdigkeit, for some short time Staffelführer Herbert Piske.
Since 3. August 1943 Hptm. Manfred Goetze had become Staffelkapitän of 5./St.G. 77
