In the fall of 1944, the brigade in which our compatriot served entered the territory of East Prussia. The guards had to make considerable efforts to capture Nemersdorf. In this two-day battle, our 18-year-old district resident burned 3 German tanks, 3 self-propelled artillery units, and disabled 2 armored personnel carriers and two trucks with shells. For his bravery, he was nominated for the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. By the decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR dated March 24, 1945, Guards Private Akhtyamov was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. He was also awarded the Order of Lenin, two Orders of the Red Star, the Order of the Patriotic War 1st class, and medals "For Military Merit," "For the Capture of Königsberg," and "For Victory over Germany." On June 24, 1945, Sabir Akhtyamov participated in the Victory Parade on Red Square as part of the consolidated regiment of the 3rd Belarusian Front.
