“Red Army Shakeup Denied by Moscow.”

The Swedes were on to something when they said the Soviets had recalled a number of high-level commanders. But you didn’t have to be James Bond to figure out that there were going to be problems for the first set of commanders the Red Army used in Finland.

It’s pretty clear to the world that the Finns stoned the Russians at this point. It’s also no surprise because most of the world knew of the purges, and it looks like the new officers don’t know their jobs.

I’m waiting to see the announcement that Voroshilov has been canned and Timoshenko has been given operational command. He will use a different strategy to defeat the Finns.
