The fact is that the division of employees can be carried out according to a variety of criteria. For example, depending on the level of government, employees may be federal or regional civil servants.
According to the branches of power, officials of the legislative, executive, judicial bodies, the prosecutor's office and other higher state bodies are classified. However, the classification of employees according to ranks, special and military ranks is considered the most significant. Currently, it is she who is most fully regulated by regulations.

Title: citizen
Kyiv became one of the first targets of the German bombers on 22 June. “Kyiv was bombed, we were told that the war had begun”... Kyiv became the site of one of the largest defeats of the Red Army in 1941: the Southwestern Front, which defended the city, was defeated. The front commander, Colonel-General M.P. Kirponos, and the chief of staff of the front, Major-General V.I. Tupikov, died in battle on September 20, along with many other front management officers. A day later, the head of the Special Department of the Front, Commissar of State Security of the 3rd rank, A.N. Mikheev, also died in battle. In total, the irretrievable losses of the Red Army in the Kyiv defensive operation amounted to 627.8 thousand people.
The Germans entered the mother of Russian cities on September 19. It was on this day that fate crossed the path of Kostya Kravchuk with a group of wounded Red Army soldiers, who, without illusions about their future, handed over two battle banners to him for preservation.
At first, Kostya simply dug up a bundle with banners in the garden, but the situation in captured Kyiv was not calm, and there was no reason to expect a quick return of his own. The Germans were pointing new order tough: Kyiv Jews almost immediately moved in an organized manner to Babi Yar, columns of prisoners stretched through the city, behind which were the corpses of exhausted Red Army soldiers ruthlessly shot by the escorts. Kostya decided to hide the banners more securely - and away from his home: he packed the banners in a canvas bag, carefully pitched it and hid it in an abandoned well.
Killed prisoners of war on the Kyiv street. Photographer of the 637th propaganda company of the 6th Army of the Wehrmacht Johannes Hele took this picture on October 1, 1941.
Keeping a secret - even from your mother - must have been very difficult. Especially when you consider that Kostya was left without a father early: he died before the war. However, until the liberation of Kyiv, no one knew about the banners.
Kostya periodically went to the well and checked whether his treasure was still there. Once, already in 1943, he was unlucky: he was caught in a round-up and was suddenly packed into a train that took Ukrainian youth to Germany. He was lucky to escape from the train, but he got to his native Obolonskaya street after Kyiv was liberated by the Red Army. And then, after a joyful meeting with his mother, he took the banners of the 968th and 970th rifle regiments to the military commandant's office.
It must be assumed that some time was spent on checking the circumstances: it is not every day that a bundle with military relics is placed on the commandant's table. But on May 23, 1944, award documents were drawn up for Kostya: an order was supposed to be awarded for saving the Battle Banner in the Soviet Union. On May 31, Kostya Kravchuk was reported to Stalin, and already on June 1, the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR was signed to award Konstantin Kononovich Kravchuk, born in 1931, with the Order of the Red Banner.
Award list for KK Kravchuk and a copy of the memorandum to Stalin.
Information about the post-war fate of KK Kravchuk is scarce. It is only known that he continued his studies at the Kharkov Suvorov Military School (established in 1943, was transferred to Kyiv in 1947), lived and worked in Kyiv, at the "A rsenale". He apparently worked with dignity: they wrote that in the 1970s his chest was decorated with the second Order of the Red Banner, this time the Order of Labor.
Kostya Kravchuk is the youngest bearer of the Order of the Red Banner in the Soviet Union.
PS: The Soviet schoolboy, Ukrainian Kostya Kravchuk, although he was ten years old at the beginning of the occupation of Kyiv, clearly understood the value of the banners entrusted to him much better than modern (and, I believe, significantly older) Wikipedia compilers, who in an article dedicated to him absurdly wrote that he “Saved the Red Army banners, which were very important”, besides distorting his patronymic.
No, they were not just important. Battle Banner units, which is well known to everyone who served in the army, "is a symbol of military honor, valor and glory", and the need to selflessly and courageously protect and defend the main relic of any military unit - the Battle Banner, to prevent its capture by the enemy - is directly written in all Charters, including the current one. The loss of the BZCH, as a rule, led to the disbandment of the unit and the demolition of its command; the preservation of the Banner, even if almost the entire personnel perished, was a necessary condition for the restoration of the unit. The fate of even the meritorious guards units who lost their banners in the most difficult battles (even though the banners were not captured by the enemy; most often they were destroyed or hidden by a dying banner group), was decided by the Headquarters of the Supreme High Command individually.
Yes, Kostya Kravchuk did not kill enemies and did not deliver particularly important intelligence to his own. His feat was quiet and, as it seems to many, imperceptible, unheroic. But it was a real feat: a worthy son of his Motherland saved her shrines from desecration by the enemy. But all that was needed was: not to pass by a wounded Red Army soldier. And the non-standard entry in the award list in the "Rank" field is a vivid reflection of this feat. The feat of being a citizen is not “this”, not “that”; their country, our country.
There is always something sacred, which they cannot, should not touch the hands of the enemy. It was; that's it; it should be.
