ID Luftwaffe pilot and unit

Good day,
A few years ago on eBay met a photograph of the grave of a Luftwaffe pilot.
It list his claims and the airfields. Maybe someone knows the name of the pilot and his unit?

Brest (10.1942 ?) - Smolensk (11.1942) - Изоча (Isotscha) (12.1942-01.1943) - Orel (03-07.1943).
I think it's not a day-fighter (or ZG-unit or NJG-unit). This unit was based along/near I/JG51 at the end of 1942 - 1943. Can be 10(night)./ZG1 ? or Nachtjagdschwarm LwKdo Ost?

Best regards,
Kirill
