Orthography and geography problem:
If it were Oberschlesie... it could be the region of Oberschlesien (it's capital is/ was Breslau, now Wroclaw, Poland) and that could be Flugplatz Olmütz and/ or Märzdorf in Oberschlesien (upper Silesia). Acc to Michael Holm http://www.ww2.dk/air/zerstorer/zg76.htm I./ZG 76 was there from 5-10/1939.
Also acc. to Holm no parts of ZG 76 were ever based in Oberschleißheim at any time.
During 1940 I./ZG 76 had their bases in
Jever (eastern Frisia, NW Germany)
Westerland/ Sylt (island, North sea in Schleswig-Holstein at the border to DK)
Aalborg West, DK
Stavanger-Sola, N
Trondheim-Vaernes, N
Stavanger-Vorus, N

Maybe you could post the writing?
