This seems to be the most vague description of merits I have ever seen as a justification for awarding a military award!

I think it is a wound award where someone doesn't want the award to look like a wound one. The entire prikaz has similar citations but changing a few words like "lands" for "territory" etc. Each recipient was wounded at some point during the war. I'm sure the Regional Military Commissariat would have had a citation stating something like "For being wounded on x and being loyal to the party etc" but this is a unit award.
