Short description of personal combat feat or accomplishment

Working as a mooring and pier boatswain, Comrade Ganichev has supported the safety of the submarine moorings at the base and despite abrupt changes in the meteorological conditions did not permit a single submarine accident on their moorings. His diligent service attitude and accurate accomplishment of his duties have earned his respect among the submarine officers. During air raid sirens he is always at his post, ready at any moment to render the necessary assistance to the submarines. During an enemy air raid in July, 1942 Comrade Ganichev displayed exceptional bravery, resourcefulness, and decisiveness in extinguishing a fire that had begun on a mooring due to the result of an enemy bomb. Risking his life Comrade Ganichev extinguished the flame, thus preventing the spread of the fire on the mooring and other structures.

He accomplishes his command’s orders quickly, accurately, and neatly, displaying both initiative and energy. He keeps the moorings, piers, and docks in full operational ability and is always ready in any meteorological and climactic conditions to accept submarines.

He has earned several commendations from the Red Banner Submarine Base during his service.

He has exhibited unlimited dedication to the Motherland in all aspects of his service.

For bravery, boldness, and decisiveness displayed during enemy aviation bombing, for safe dockage of the submarine moorings, and for excellent service he is deserving of the Order of the Red Star.

Signed Commander, Northern Fleet Red Banner Submarine Brigade Shore Base, Captain III Class Mordenko on 10th August, 1943

Endorsed Commander, Northern Fleet Red Banner Submarine Brigade, Captain I Class Kolyshkin on 22nd August, 1943

Petr Ilich Ganichev's Order of the Red Star, #182725, and incidentally, he was in his late 40's when he was awarded his Red Star.

My thanks to Auke and desantnik for their invaluable assistance.

Re: Red Star,0182725,Sailor,Northern Fleet Red Banner Submarine Brigade Shore Base

This is one of my favourites. I know exactly what the situation is when the bad weather comes rolling into a mooring. Lots of running around with ropes and knot after knot. Wet through to the bone and miserable. Brilliant to see this really mundane task being awarded with a Red Star. That being said if someone allowed a submarine to slip her mooring there would be some "liquidation" of those responsible.
