Luftwaffe defence of Kirkenes/Petsamo July 1941

Hi guys

I'm seeking German newspaper/journal/magazine/personal reports of the defence by the Luftwaffe of Kirkenes and Petsamo at the end of July 1941.

It was one of the biggest and most successful actions of the period, which I assume received much publicity in Germany, if only from the propaganda angle. Were pilots interviewed? Did reports appear in 'Der Adler' or 'Luft Nord' or some similar outlet?

Any advise/leads appreciated.

Cheers
Brian
