Short, specific presentation of the personal battle feat or achievement:
Comrade Kolbasa is an example for the cavalry soldiers. In the battles for the city of Konigsberg, Comrade Kolbasa demonstrated inventiveness, bravery, and courage. On 04/06/45, he removed the cannon from under heavy enemy artillery fire. On 04/07/45, while moving his cannon, Comrade Kolbasa employed an tactical detouring manoeuvre which allowed him to go around the enemy firing positions and thus managed to capture 6 German large-calibre cannons. In the battles for Konigsberg, Comrade Kolbasa personally, with his own carbine, demolished 5 German soldiers.
For the bravery and courage demonstrated in the battles against the German invaders, he merits the Government Award of Order Glory 3rd degree.
