    Hello

    I'm from Helsinki, Finland. I've read this forum many times before without registering, and finally decided to join.

    My main interests are US ground units in both ETO and PTO, their histories, to&es and tactics etc.

    Hello Tirdad!

    I have some albums from RUK ( reserve officer school) where he served in the 1920´s at least.

    I remember that after the war the Red Army officials came to visit Finland and check its defence and he showed a point in th map and said "This point is where we kill you to the last man". He sure got balls and courage.
