Despite the continuous fire he moved into the infantry’s fighting positions at the necessary moments. Enemy counterattacks especially seize him. At these times he is absolutely fearless. On 22nd November of this year near Krasnaya Konstantinovka, the enemy threw two companies into the counterattack. Comrade Kondrakhin was always present with the mortarmen, often switching out with the gunners. In this engagement more than a company of enemy infantry was destroyed by him. He is deserving of the Order of the Red Star. Signed Commander, 1292nd Rifle Regiment, (?)

Re: Red Star,0411674,Platoon Leader,82mm Mortar Company,1292nd Rifle Regiment
Podvignaroda lists another Order of the Red Star for Lieutenant Nikolai Mikhailovich Kondrakhin, which initially was a recommendation for an Order of the Patriotic War in 2nd Class. That citation, shown here, upgraded/downgraded, I am not sure which, that recommendation to an Order of the Red Star. It is then listed as an Order of the Patriotic War, 2nd Class, and then shown on Podvignaroda as a Red Star. Once the Award Card is located I am hopeful this documentary inconsistency will be resolved, unless any of my collector colleagues can shed some light on the matter. This remains a work in progress. . .
Award Sheet 1. Last name, name, and patrionymic: Kondrakhin, Nikolai Mikhailovich 2. Rank: Lieutenant 3. Duty position: Platoon Leader – Mortar Company, 1288th Rifle Regiment, 113th Lower Dniester Red Banner Rifle Division Recommendation for the Order of the Patriotic War II 4. Born: 1918 5. Nationality: Russian 6. Party membership: candidate member since September 1943. Candidate card #7409331 7. Previous combat: Patriotic War 7.43-16.9.43 on the SW Front, 16.9.43-15.10.43 on the Steppe Front, 29.11.43 – 22.2.44 on the 2nd Ukrainian Front, since 22.2.44 until present on the 3rd Ukrainian Front. 15.10.43-29.11.43 recuperating from wounds, 7.41-10.41 and 5.42-7.43 served (?) and 10.41-5.42 Sretinskoe (?) Academy 8. Wounds or shell-shock: lightly wounded 15.10.43 on the Steppe Front 9. In Red Army: since 7.1941 10. Inducted by: Fokin Regional Military Commissariat, Molotov Oblast 11. Previous awards: Red Star by 113th Rifle Division Order 029/N dated 10.10.43 12. Home of record: [trans: entry intentionally obscured] Short description of personal combat feat or accomplishment In fighting to penetrate the enemy defense near the village of Yako (Hungary) 28-30.03.45 Comrade Kondrakhin corrected the mortar company’s fire. Upon his command the mortar platoon accurately placed mortar rounds on the enemy. In this fighting the mortar platoon destroyed three heavy machineguns and their crews and as many as 40 German soldiers. The mortar platoon’s fire caused heavy enemy losses, thus supporting our rapid advance, entering the enemy trenchline, then assaulting and capturing the village of Yako. I am submitting Lieutenant N.M. Kondrakhin for the Order of the Patriotic War II Class. Signed Commander, 1288th Rifle Regiment, Colonel Alekhin on 8th April, 1945 Endorsed Commander, 113th Lower Dniester Red Banner Rifle Division, General-Major Ki(?) on 14th April, 1945 Awarded the Order of the Red Star by 64th Rifle Corps Order 022/N dated 18.4.45, signed Corps Deputy Chief of Personnel Captain Ermolaenko |
