Short description of personal combat feat or accomplishment
Comrade Stepanov has proven himself a bold, valorous, and motivated individual – he can always be seen in the front line observation posts and firing positions. By his Bolshevist word and personal example, on 22.07.44 near Shabana he supported the accurate fire of fifth battery, thus destroying an anti-tank gun, suppressing four firing positions, and killing as many as 25 Fritzes.
On 22.7.44, sixth battery was trailing through a swamp and subjected to enemy shelling. Comrade Stepanov organized the soldiers, quickly extricating the battery thus enabling it to fire.
Despite enemy machinegun fire, Comrade Stepanov on 3.08.44 went to the rifle companies, telling the rifleman about the artillerymen’s actions, thus assisting combined arms operations with the infantry. Comrade Stepanov continuously motivates the scouts and communicators to victory and heroism. With his radio set, Communicator-Communist Comrade Titov was one of the first to cross the Velikaya river over the remnants of a destroyed bridge and establish communications with the firing positions.
Near Bor-Velikovo two of the battalion’s scouts captured two Fritzes. Near Kozla scouts and communicators of the fifth and six batteries with their submachineguns repelled two German counterattacks.
I am submitting Comrade Stepanov for the Order of the Red Star.
