Short translation of the research:<\/strong><\/p>\n

While being a canon commander of 76 battery of 91 guardian rifle division and 33 guardian rifle division, comrade Lunga Grigoriy Zinovievich had mission to destroy enemy fortified position and suppress enemy fire positions, which precluded further moving of ally forces.<\/p>\n

When the canon gunner was killed by enemy artillery fire, comrade Lunga took his place and suppressed fire position by sharp shoot and gave the possibility on successfully relocation of ally infantry.
