We continue to present the heroes of special operation “Z”, participants in military operations in the zone of special military operation. Soldiers, sergeants, corporals and officers who demonstrated their professional experience, character and completed combat missions. His determination, assertiveness and combat experience are highly appreciated by the Russian Ministry of Defense. Our heroes thwarted attacks and prevented nationalist counteroffensives, for which they received state awards. But they are not useful for praising. The military is confident that the enemy has no chance of success, because Donbass and Russia are fighting for a just cause.
“Send to happiness, because one minute decides victory,” said Generalissimo Alexander Suvorov, who did not lose a single battle. He also taught: “The enemy is rejected: failure. Isolated, surrounded, scattered: good luck.”
ARTILLERISTS WITH APU SUITS
Junior Sergeant Viktor Golitsyn
“Junior Sergeant Viktor Golitsyn was tasked with quickly delivering fuel and lubricants to one of the artillery units supporting the defending Russian troops on the combat contact line.
The enemy took the section of road leading to the Russian artillerymen under fire control.
Junior Sergeant Golitsyn, despite the artillery bombardment and the threat of fire from the transported cargo, skillfully maneuvered on the ground and changed the speed limit, thanks to which the artillery of the Ukrainian militants could not reach the vehicle. Having overcome a dangerous section of the route at high speed, Victor delivered fuel to the artillery division, which contributed to the rapid change of positions of the crews and the effective defeat of superior enemy forces with accurate fire.
THEY TOOK THE SERIOUSLY INJURED OUT OF UNDER FIRE
Sergeant Valeri Alexandrov
“The orderly of the medical platoon, Sergeant Valery Alexandrov, performed tasks to provide medical support to the personnel of one of the battalions.
The group, which included Valery Alexandrov, was tasked with marching to the area of a strategically important settlement, providing support to units occupying positions and preventing Ukrainian militants from breaking through into their area of responsibility.
The enemy, with superior forces, attempted to dislodge our troops from their occupied lines. With the support of aviation and artillery, Ukrainian militants attacked a stronghold of Russian soldiers.
During the fighting, while on the combat contact line, Valery Alexandrov pulled out from under enemy fire four Russian servicemen who were wounded to varying degrees of severity and could not move independently. He then provided them with first aid and organized evacuation to a medical hospital.
In addition, Sergeant Aleksandrov repeatedly provided medical assistance to wounded comrades at the unit site: he stopped bleeding, removed fragments and created all conditions for the soldiers to return to duty.
“Sergeant Valery Alexandrov’s selfless actions and professional skills contributed to saving the lives of Russian military personnel.”
