Combat log of Gefechtsverband Kuhlmey?

Is there any confirmed information of Detachment Kuhlmey units (Stab II./JG54, 4. u 5./JG54), I./SG 3 , 1./SG5 and I/NaGr 5) and time table of their combat missions. Yes there are several reports of numbers of flying missions during period of 16 June to 20 July 44 but i have never seen precise timing of missions of its units.

The combat log of FiAF can be found for instance from here http://digi.narc.fi/digi/view.ka?kuid=4893255

There are some copies of Kuhlmey's mission reports in German at the National Archives of Finland. There are also some Luftflotte 1 liaison officer reports. The reports are under various folders in the archives of the HQ of the Finnish Air Force.

Can you say where can one find them?
