Brief, concrete description of his feat of arms or achievements:
During the fighting near the train station of Bulatselovka, Kharkov Oblast, comrade I.Y.
Chichevsky showed himself a brave and disciplined Red Army commander who is capable of taking initiative. He is
demanding of both himself and his subordinates and commands authority among his men. He served as senior adjutant of
a mortar battalion.
He was always present in the most dangerous sector. During his regiment's offensive toward height
137.5, the commander of the 1st Mortar Company was killed, after which comrade Chichevsky assumed command of the
company and inflicted heavy losses upon the enemy.
On June 22, 1942 the company launched a bayonet attack four times, during which near the village of
Shevchenkovo, Kharkov Oblast, 230 enemy soldiers and officers were killed, 7 light machine guns were destroyed, 2
mortar batteries were suppressed, 1 enemy vehicle was taken out of action, and an enemy ammunition depot was blown
up. During a hand-to-hand engagement comrade Chichevsky himself killed 7 soldiers and 1 officer and took 1 captured
soldier back to the staff.
He is fearless in battle and dedicated to the motherland.
Senior Lieutenant I.Y. Chichevsky deserves the Order of the Red Star.
