Once he woke up from sleep in trench, saw a un-exploded bomb right beneath him :D sneaked away
And as Russian grenades broke the phone wires, he had to quickly pull new ones
Didn't tell much about battle itself, but veterans usually didn't
I think his WWII diary is at our home, I should maybe read some time

They could just stopped at their old borders and disavowed Nazi Germany. But instead, they sought to starve out the population of St. Petersburg. Not the moral winners if you ask me.
>>78698044
it is pretty much what they did when they served nazis
finns are always ready to stab into the back, consider that story how their leader on one occasion smoked near hitler which hitler hated because hitler showed a sign of weakness
i think one day we will kill all the finns till the last alive finlet

And Finns made clear they had their own war, and a loose alliance with Germany
