Many thanks Simon!
I came across quite a few "Umansko-Hristinovsky" when doing a translated websearch but could not make heads nor tails of that.
edit: Uman (Ukrainian: Умань) is a city located in the Cherkasy Oblast (province) in central Ukraine, to the east of Vinnytsia. The city rests on the banks of the Umanka River and serves as the self-governing administrative center of the Umanskyi Raion (district).
Some other info on this man indicates he was in the 794th Rifle Regiment, 232 Rifle Division*, 2nd Ukrainian Front.
That Front included the 4th Guards Army.
edit: 232nd Rifle Division—6000 чел. (начало сборов 1.06.41, Kharkov MD). Established at Chernigov prior to 6.41 and wiped out at Kiev 9.41. Recreated at Biysk 1.42, fought at Voronezh, Kiev, and Iasi. With 40th Army of the 2nd Ukrainian Front 5.45.
* perhaps less well known as the "232nd Rifle Sumsko-Kievskaya Order of Lenin Order of the Red Banner Order of Suvorov Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky Division":cool:. Try saying that in one breath! :rolleyes:
