In 1935, by special recruitment, he was enrolled in the Military school of pilots and observers of naval and land aviation named after Stalin in Yeysk, from which he graduated in 1937. He lived in Moscow and worked at the 192nd military factory. He was called up to the Red Army by the Kalinin RVC of the Moscow region on October 20, 1941, with the rank of petty officer, as a branch commander. He was wounded twice in 1942 and 1943. Then, he was transferred to the Tula Military Transshipment and Point. He arrived at the unit on 27.10.1943 as a member of 1350 rifle regiment 234 of the Lomonosov-Prague Order of Suvorov and Bogdan Khmelnitsky rifle division of 83 rifle corps of the Kalinin Front with the rank of petty officer. From November 23 to December 31, 1943, the 234th Lomonosov rifle division fought as part of the 83rd rifle corps of the 11th guards army of the 1st Baltic front, and took part in the Gorodok offensive operation (December 13 - 31, 1943). As a result of the operation, the front troops advanced 60 km, defeated 6 infantry and one tank divisions of the enemy, eliminated the Gorodok ledge and created conditions for an offensive near the city of Vitebsk of the BSSR. By the end of 1943, the 234th rifle division reached the area north-west of the city of Vitebsk, where it went into defense. Until the beginning of February 1944, the division defended the occupied lines as part of the 83rd rifle corps of the 4th shock army of the 1st Baltic front. On February 3, 1944, the 234th rifle division was withdrawn to the reserve of the VGK Headquarters and reformed at the Likhoslavl station in the Kalinin (now Tver) region. From March 8 to March 18, 1944, the division was relocated to the area of Kovel, Volyn region of the Ukrainian SSR. Upon arrival in Western Ukraine to the station Rafalovka in Vladimiretskiy district, Rovne region division, breaking a ten-day March, concentrated in the vicinity of the village Mysovo - river Vyzhva Starovyzhivskiy district of Volyn region. On March 28, 1944, the 234th Lomonosov rifle division became part of the 77th rifle corps of the 47th army of the 2nd Belorussian front. Taking up a defensive position on the right bank of the Vyzhva river, the division stood in the way of the enemy, who was furiously rushing to their group, surrounded by Soviet troops in the city of Kovel. In the conditions of early spring, it was necessary to close the highway and Brest-Kovel. Serious interruptions in the supply of fuel and ammunition seriously affected the position of the division and complicated the task assigned to it. From the first day, the battles became fierce. On March 29, 1944, the enemy launched a decisive offensive, trying to cross the Vyzhva river. To strengthen its attacks, it threw more and more forces. To deter the onslaught of superior enemy forces, the soldiers of the division had to show exceptional resilience and strength of will. Kadetov G. N. was killed on April 1, 1944 in a battle near the village of Cherkassy, Kovel district, Volyn region. He was buried in a mass grave in the village of Zalessky, Volyn region. He was reburied in a mass grave at the village cemetery at the entrance to the village Lukov, Turiysky district, Volyn region. His widow, Klavdia Stepanovna Samodelova (1921-2011), and three children remained in Moscow. Samodelova K. S. was a rear worker and worked at a military factory until retirement.
