Short Description of Military Distinction:

On the 1st of May 1945, while attacking the front line of the enemy’s defenses Sergeant Smadik demonstrated courage and bravery while in the ranks of a mounted platoon. By his own imitative, during an attack in the area of Tsulen village, he chased the retreating enemy killing 4 soldiers with his blade and taking 2 German officers prisoner. To this date, Comrade Smadik has 56 exterminated fascists on his battle account. He deserves the governmental award Order “Glory 3rd Class”.

Commander 22nd Guards Calvary Regiment
Guards Lt. Colonel /Sukhanov/
5 May 1945

A criminal shame that the two gallantry medals have gone missing (2361901 and 2209460).


The medal (researched by serial number), rather "salty":

Re: Glory III,336919,Tsulen village (?)

The original citation.

Apparently Smadik received three Medals "For Valour" and there has been an administrative error.
