He was also awarded another order of the red star in 1953

His name was Aleksei Ivanovich Pomazanov and his rank was Senior Technical Lieutenant.

[Bill Garvy]

Here are Aleksiy Ivanovich Pomazanov's documents from the archive. His Award Card also lists a Combat Service Medal (#2696157) awarded November 6th, 1947 (post-war), so there are no documents in the archive for this or his other Order of the Red Star (#3110353) awarded August 21st, 1953 (long-service?).

Does anyone know what the citation for his order of the red star says?

"he worked as head of the photographic laboratory of the regiment, showed himself to be a good worker, who perfectly knows his specialty.
When he arrived in the regiment, he equipped a photo lab, which provided a fast and trouble-free processing of aerial photography.
He also quickly mastered the work with foreign photographic materials, for which special chemical solutions were required.
All combat aerial photography was processed by him in a short time, with the use of accelerated methods. During his stay in the regiment, his photo subdivision processed 1012 films (this is about 5716 meters). He personally processed 750 films and made 14,000 photographs.
For this he was awarded the Red Star award. "

His Award Card also lists a Combat Service Medal (#2696157) awarded November 6th, 1947 (post-war), so there are no documents in the archive for this or his other Order of the Red Star (#3110353) awarded August 21st, 1953 (long-service)

I guess, both CSM in 1947 and RS in 1953 are long service decorations for 10 and 15 years respectively.
There were 2 decoration decrees on the same date, one for gallantry and wounds during war and the other for long service.
The long service fits perfectly to the information here.

Bill, some of the post-war documents are available. F.ex. for the decree #223 from 06/Nov/47, and others.
But the post-war long service ones are not. At least, I have not seen any. Have you?
