The Finns are the same people who butchered the Red Army in 1940 with Suomi submachineguns and captured Mosin-Nagants.

Always wanted to visit there but there’s a sauna in my building and I hate snow & anyway Finlandia vodka is available locally.

There are Finnish women in Finland, and if you play your cards right, in the sauna with you. It is definitely worth it.

I guess you can call defending your country butchering. Many invaders died by the knife. Venturing into the forest was dangerous.

Sako and Valmet supplied some of their service weapons. They still do.

If you captured a Russian soldier you got to keep the red star on his uniform. The first ones were metal, later they were made of cloth.

There are many lakes along the southern border so few routes into Finland.
The Russians broke through the middle border area using overwhelming force in 44-45. The Finns joke the people in this area are lazy and they lost because they took their time getting to the front. (lots of regional humor in small countries)
