Ivan Ivanovich Serebritskii was a career worker on the Soviet railways.  He rose from the ranks of regular 'worker' to that of a train engineer and eventually the director of a large portion of the northern railways of the Soviet Union.  He was also a 'Party Man'.  This group came with over 100 documents detailing his activities in support of the Communist Party.  What he was best known for, however, was raising rabbits at railway stations!!! Not much is known about his awards and decorations however.  We do know that his Lenin was awarded in 1954 because of his bravery shown when extinguishing a fire onboard his train!  An impressive guy!
