Short Description of his feat of arms or achievements:

“Throughout the regiment’s combat operations comrade Lukinov has been organizing the communications duties in an excellent manner.

On January 29, 1944, during the fighting for the village of Tishkovka (Zlatopol Raion, Kirovograd Oblast), when German tanks severed the telephone cables leading from the command post to the units with their tracks and threatened to cut off the command post from the regiment’s frontline units, comrade Lukinov arranged for telephone communications to be quickly restored. On his signal, his signallers crawled toward the enemy tanks, dragged the cables out from under the tanks, and diverted the line via de safe side. Communications were restored in a timely manner, which allowed for the danger to be removed. ”
