Campaign medal documents

[retro]

Here is a document in a set of items my less 'technical' friend picked up that I thought was interesting.
Stalingrad doc. It is issued to a Пороник Григорий Саввич and from the 3rd Guard's Mechanized Corp (formerly 4th Mechanized Corps).
But a closer look into the records show he was their counter-intelligence officer and at the time in the 57th army surrounding Stalingrad

ОО НКВД 4 мк 57 А ЮжнФ
Особый Отдел Народный комиссариат внутренних дел - 4 механизированный корпус - Южный фронт
