III./Sturzkampfgeschwader 77 at Argentan

Hello everyone,
I would like to know if anyone could help me with bibliographical/archival references regarding the involvement of III./StG. 77 in the Battle of Britain, while it was stationed at Argentan (Normandy), from August 1940 to March 1941. I have read much introductory information on the Internet, both in English and German, but now I would like to go into this subject more thoroughly by reading English and German publications: hence my request. Being born in the Argentan area and having gathered information and photographs from locals, my purpose is now to get the perspective from the other side, if I may say so.

Also, among a set of photographs taken at the III./StG. 77 airfield near Argentan, this emblem is visible on the right side of one of their Ju 87. I wonder if anyone might identify it, since it does not match any of the StG. 77 known insignias.

Thanks in advance!
