Short description of personal combat feat or accomplishment
Senior Red Seaman V.D. Mileiko has been in the active duty Navy on torpedo cutters as a torpedo cutter motor operator since the very beginning of the Patriotic War.
As a motor operator of Torpedo Cutter #46, Comrade Mileiko has repeatedly participated in raids on enemy ports and lines of communication, often exposed to heavy enemy fire and in combat has proven himself a valorous, steadfast warrior supporting the survivability and maneuverability of the craft.
During the cutter’s accomplishment of a sensitive operation in mining the enemy coastline Comrade Mileiko not only provided the enemy’s course but personally participated in placing mines, displaying during this activity steadfastness in the execution of the given operation. Senior Red Seaman Mileiko is a highly disciplined warrior, dedicated to the Lenin-Stalin Party and always ready to enter combat and crush the German invaders for the sake of liberating our Motherland from the enemy.
For excellent participation in the accomplishment of mine delivery operations against enemy coastline and displaying valor and steadfastness in the struggle against the enemy, I am recommending Comrade V.D. Mileiko for the Order of the Red Star.
