Short Description of his feat of arms:

“During the capture of the town of Vinnitsa on January 15, 1945 comrade Funtikov and his company decided the outcome of battle by taking the village of Vinnitsa, thus enabling our tanks to advance. Comprade Funtikov’s company carried out its combat mission perfectly and killed dozens of German soldiers and officers.

Comrade Funtikov’s company repelled a counter attack by enemy tanks and infantry. In doing so blew up a tank with an antitank grenade. Through personal example comrade Funtikov inspired his men to accomplish their tasks.”
