Award Sheet
Award Recommendation for Northern Fleet, Main Base Brigade of Patrol Craft, Section Commander of “Uragan” Vessel Petty Officer II Class Nikolai Vasilevich Pryanichnikov for the Order of the Red Star 1. Birth year: 1919 2. Nationality: Russian 3. Social position and progress: office worker from peasant family 4. Party membership: Comsomol member since 1942 5. In Red Army: since 1941 6. Participation in the Civil War: n/a 7. Wounds or shell-shock: n/a 8. Previous awards: n/a 9. Letters of Commendation or other encouragements: n/a 10. Service in the White Army, other bourgeois armies, or prisoner: n/a 11. Home of record: [trans: entry intentionally obscured] Short description of personal combat feat or accomplishment Serving on the “Groza”[trans: “Threat”] vessel and later “Uragan”[trans: “Hurricane”] since the beginning of the Patriotic War, Comrade Pryanichnikov directly participated in combat actions serving as an example to his subordinates. From 22 June 1941 through March 1942 he participated in many combat operations shelling enemy fortifications and equipment, engaging in convoy operations with our and allied transports including the rescue of the “Mariya Ulyanova.” While in the 2nd Battalion assault/fire-correction party he repeatedly landed on the Western Face to adjust fire upon enemy firing positions and personnel, as from the “Groza” and “Smerch” escort vessels. Through his hard, selfless work upon the “Uragan,” he greatly enabled the quickest introduction of a vessel into the naval fleet. First occupying the duty of helmsman and then helm section commander, Comrade Pryanichnikov’s intiative and decisiveness repeatedly extricated the ship from difficult situations. On 5 March 1943 while passing through Ekaterinenskaya Harbor, the steering wheel went out of order and repeatedly reporting about the situation, Comrade Pryanichnikov ran from the steering section and transferred the steering wheel to manual control, thus preventing a major accident. On 12 May 1943 while passing the narrow strait between Salnii island and the eastern coast of Kolskii bay, the steering mechanism went out of order and Comrade Pryanichnikov quickly reported the situation and instantly transferred the steering to manual control, thus permitting the commander to assume control and prevent a major ship accident. On the night of 11-12 October 1943 while accomplishing its combat mission at the entry of the White Sea in stormy weather the steering mechanism again went out of order due to damage. As a result of the damage, Comrade Pryanichnikov took manual control of the ship for three hours. In September-October 1943 the ship was without a navigational electrician and Pryanichnikov learned this specialty in the course of a month and worked as the navigational electrician. In day-to-day conditions in any maneuvers Pryanichnikov proved himself a real master of his trade, greatly easing the commander’s control of the ship. During his service he participated in more than 22 convoys going over 11,000 miles, participated in the accomplishment of the Command’s mission in employing new equipment, conducted military patrols, and searched for enemy ships. For exemplary accomplishment of the Command’s missions on the front against the German invaders and for displaying valor and bravery, I recommend Comrade Pryanichnikov for the Order of the Red Star.

Re: Red Star,0215960,Northern Fleet
I do not know from where the collector from whom I obtained this piece obtained the abbreviated card. I was overjoyed to simply be able to add a Soviet Navy award to the collection. I would have to hypothesize (my best guess), the Naval Archives, which, my sources inform me, are slowly opening up, that is, if, as we say in Chicago, "I knowa guy. . ."

Re: Red Star,0215960,Northern Fleet
I've seen a few of those "Abbreviated Award Cards", which are used to record a recipient's long-service awards. They are stored together with the regular record card (for both Army and Navy recipients all record cards are stored in the Central Archive).
