I first heard of the Winter War when I lived on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula back in the 1970s. I’d hang around the American Legion or VFW and some of the guys talked about their grandfathers, fathers or uncles fighting in the Winter War.
The stories they related were incredible.I forgot the name of that Finn sniper, but it’s estimated he had somewhere around 600 kills using an iron sight Mosin-Nagant. Wow!
His name was Simo Hayha, aka The White Death. I put his picture in post #13. He had 515 confirmed kills with his sniper rifle and another 200 with a submachine gun when he shot up a Soviet base.
