Under Colonel BADANIN's direction, the Headquarters began managing and providing better assistance to the engineering forces at the frontline in terms of ensuring the success of the offensive manoeuvres. As a rule, especially during battle operations, 50-60% of the Headquarters staff worked with the engineering units and assists them, as a result of which the Military Council of the North-Caucasian Front has recognized their actions as good.
Under the enemy's mortar-thrower fire, Colonel BADANIN has personally managed the building of the bridge over the KUBAN River in the TROTZKAYA district and taken them across the river in a timely manner. Under Colonel BADANIN's direction, tank units have repeatedly crossed the Kuban River in a timely manner. During the offensive operations of July - August 1943, Colonel BADANIN has repeatedly conducted in-person checks of the preparations for the sappers' passage into the minefields.
