This is an award paper (a form of gramota) given to participants in a specific battle. They really only appear in 1945 when the Red Army began to have the luxury of time and resources to do this sort of thing. Most I ave seen have mice drawing at the top.
It is to Comrade Petr Vasilevich Ivanov for participation in the battle to seize Gdansk/Danzig from the Baltic Fleet. I guess Ivanov was a sailor or naval infantry.
