To Chris, Doug and John -- thanks for your replies.

From your leads I've been able to pull this out:

13 Aug 1941, 6./ZG26 Bf-110 E2 3U+FP W.Nr 4475 - crashed (no cause given).
Pilot - Oblt Otto von Steinhart, FSA-WIA. Bf - Gefr Wilhelm Wolfahrt, FSA-KIA.

To Doug, if von Steinhart served in II./ZG26 ~ 6./NJG4 ~ ZG2, then a more plausible movement would be II./ZG26 ~ ZG2 ~ 6./NJG4, but in 1942 instead of 1943. He probably returned to his unit upon recovery, then joined elements of II./ZG26 that were used to form I./ZG2 in Apr-May 1942, moving again to 6./NJG4 some time later.

To John, it is likely that von Steinhart transferred to II./ZG26 some time in Sep 1940, as I have a document dated 2 Sep 1940 that was signed by him as "Lt und stellv StKap". And lastly, do you know if von Steinhart joined 1./ErpGr210 directly, or was he one of the initial 1./ZG1 pilots?
