It would have been too easy if I had a s/n... as far as I can read, I have his commendation signed on August 5th 1944 by Moskalenko and Oleinik.
In a few words, this commendation is for courage and bravery shown during an operation between July 14th and August 1st 1944 and for his help to the Commander.
On the same paper (Награднои Лист), we can read that he had already earned the Order of the Patriotic War 1st class, the 20Years RKKA medal, and the medal for the Defense of Stalingrad.
Yesterday I received my first research for another award... and I was very surprised to see the same type of paper for the award commendation! but for Gredinarenko, I have the original one ; is it common?
