Re: Lt Otto von Steinhart, 1./ErpGr 210

Andre,

Happy to be of some help.

As far as von Steinhart being with 1./ZG 1, I can't answer that, because all of my research papers are now lodged with a certain archive. There is a document in them which gives a full list of 'in the field' personnel for March 1940 for 1./ZG 1, and later for 1./Erpr. Gr. 210, including ground personnel.

Can I now ask you a question? That document signed by him as 'Lt. und stellv. StKap'. Was that while he was with Erpr. Gr. 210? The reason I ask is that on 2nd September 1940, von Boltenstern was in place as Gruppenkommandeur of Erpr. Gr. 210, and Martin Lutz would have been in place as Staka of 1./210.

Wolfgang Schenck had an interesting perspective on von Steinhart...
