Help interpreting line 12 would be greatly appreciated!
I don't have an exact translation of the citation, but I used google translator. It basically goes like this:
He received a shrapnel wound to the right side, left on sick leave, returned to battle, and was again wounded by shrapnel, this time in the left leg. He was originally recommended for an Order of the Patriotic War 2nd Class.

Here is a close-up of line 12 of the award record card. Something with the arms industry?
