Citation for his second "Bravery Medal"
Short, concrete description of the personal combat feat or merits:
During the offensive fighting in East Prussia comrade Kuznetsov showed himself a brave and responsive defender of the socialist motherland who knows his job well. _____ located with the division’s chief of staff, he carried out all of his orders in time. Several times he and his vehicle found themselves under fire, but he didn’t abandon his vehicle and skilfully withdrew it from under fire. During the offensive comrade Kuznetsov delivered captured gasoline when there wasn’t enough fuel. During the entire offensive his vehicle didn’t suffer a single failure or breakdown.
For displayed courage and bravery, for conscientiously carrying out his duties and for his alertness I nominate comrade Kuznetsov for the Medal for Bravery.
