Demoted from app. Sr.Lt. to private in around 1941 period.
Twice (?) wounded. As of March 1945 in a hospital in Lviv due to head wound (his third?).
I don't think there is a chance to find much more than that...

The photo on the right is dated 1942 with mention of 366th and 27th reserve régiments in Alkino. A Вячкилева is just a soldier.

Just a small comment related to Russian grammar.
His surname was ВЯЧКИЛЕВ, without A at the end.
An A at the end of a surname usually (but not always) indicates women's surname.
Here on the photo, the A letter in his surname is the result of grammar when writing surname in the genetive case.
