Born in the remote region of Transbaikal Krai, Semyon is an ethnic Evenki, who from an early age showed superhuman shooting and survivability.

According to statistics, in the six months before July 1942, he killed 151 enemy soldiers, creating an astonishing record.

For his outstanding performance, Semyon was awarded the Order of Lenin, the Order of the Red Banner and two Red Stars, becoming the most prestigious sniper in the Soviet Army. Even in the face of many dangers, he never flinched, but became more and more courageous. In the confrontation with the Germans, he was slightly wounded 8 times, but never gave up.

After the war, Semyon retired and returned to his hometown, where he lived a stable and happy life. During his lifetime, he destroyed a total of 367 enemy soldiers, trained 99 elite snipers for the motherland, and made great contributions to the anti-fascist war. Known as the "shaman of the taiga", he showed extraordinary courage and wisdom in the war.
