About
We are a history page dedicated to Finland's war veterans 1939 - 1945:
- Winterwar 1939-1940 (vs. Soviet Union)
- Continuation War 1941 -1944 (vs. Soviet Union)
- Lapland War 1944 - 1945 (vs. Germany)
These wars were factual independence wars to Finland. For a long time Stalin had planned to invade Finland. When Soviet Union and Germany made the Molotov-Ribbentropp pact, Stalin got his chance to attack Finland. However, Winterwar was a humiliating disaster, when tiny Finland would not roll over, but caused enourmous losses to the red army. Finland stayed independent, which was nothing short of amazing.
