Staffelkapitäne KG 77

Hello

can someone provide me the names of Staffelkapitäne for I and III/KG 77 for the period june to august 1944 ?
All I have is Hptm Walter Kipfmuller for 3./KG 77
and (perhaps) Hptm Dietrich Jordan (MIA 22 june 1944) for 2./KG 77.

Greetings

Claude

Can you precise first name and grade for Gerbig, Lutz and Bohnet ? Also
date for Gerbig ?
