He was a soldier at heart, hated the communists and fought only against them in the service of the armies of the three countries. Is the ONLY German Waffen SS trained soldier who is buried in Arlington Cemetery.

[@OllihuAkbar]

...That we know of.

[@Hynsson]

Finland indeed was allied to Nazi Germany. It was pretty much the only option, because USA, UK etc were allied with enemy of Finland, the Soviet Union. So it was either get beaten by Soviets or ally with Germany. Finland wasn't part of the Axis (Germany, Italy and Japan)

[@Pyllymysli]

Also good to remember that while France, UK, USA and other big allied nations condemned the soviet aggression, they did jack shit in actual help. Germany was the only option for the under equipped and under gunned small country, since they were the only ones willing to give, you know, weapons.

[@kronop8884]

@@Pyllymysli Not to mention that the Uk actually declared war on Finland on December 5 ,1941, pressured by the Soviets to do so.

[@RoyalMela]

And during Winter War, Germany and Soviets were allies, and all foreign aid to Finland never arrived on time, thanks to Germany. Both nations made sure other party was able to invade countries without problems. UK aid was halted in Baltic Sea, planes bought from Italy could not fly over Germany and so on.

Fun fact, our future president fought in Törnis detachment.

[@Gibbetoo]

our former President Mauno Koivisto fought in Detachment Törni.

[@DR_REDACTED]

Future, good brah?

[@Robban.D.Jonsson.]

Given the choice of nazi germany or the soviet union, I think most any sane person at the time would choose germany.

[@AskiFin]

Finland needed allies and since soviet russia was part of "allies", we had to have some.. that someone was Germany.. We asked british for help, in return, they declared war (But did send troops.. Actor who played Saruman in Lord of the Rings fought in winter war). We had no allies.. we took what we can get.. and after losing to Russia second time, Finland declared war on Germany.. Finnish concentration camps killed in percents, more than germany did.. but we weren't killing anyone.. it was mismanagement and we were killing russians.. reason why we weren't in nurnberg trials is because we had seperate peace with russia before WW2 ended.. we were absolved.. BTW, Finland is the only nation in europe that has paid their war reperations so far.

[@Mojova1]

Finland was never a strong ally of the natsis. Finn just had to be "friends" with someone so they could hold back the russians that were to finns way more real of an enemy. Finland "allied" with the natsis to get back what was taken and nothing more.

[@RoyalMela]

To put it short: Germany helped Finland. Finland did not help Germany.

[@marcinszrajber]

We have our own example in Poland. Józef Bem is national hero of Poland, Hungary and Turkey

[@Kosmologiikka]

Liking and subbing just because you realized a mini-cheat code in youtube videos that have anything remotely related with Finland.

[@mhh7544]

Some Finns, especially those who were in SS went to French Foreing Legion.

[@pvahanen]

You now. France did not have its own army, a legion during the German rule.

[@mhh7544]

[@Gibbetoo]

prayers for the homeless veterans.

[@niclasthil8933]

It was not the helo they were looking for. They try to find Lauri Törni alias Larry Thorn. He´s real hero.

[@finnishculturalchannel]

Finland in the WW2 seen through news: News from the winter 1939: " British Pathé Sympathy For Finland (1939)". News from 11 Jan 1940: "British Movietone Finnish War. Sarmijarvi And Prisoners". News from 18 Aug 1941: "British Movietone FAA Raid Petsamo". News from 1942: "Arctic convoy of British ships underway in the North Sea carrying weapons to Russ...HD Stock Footage". Footage from 1944: "Things About Swedish History Lappland War fighting filmed in Tornio". Here's a documentary about Törni/Thorne: "Törni - Sotilaan tarina (A Soldier's Story) English Subtitles".

[@TK8866275]

There is also episode of an old TV-documentary "THE BIG PICTURE" -- "Phantom Fighters" about US Army's Tenth Special Forces Group in Europe kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqi6hKqAYpeImJo where you can see quite a lot of footage about Larry Thorne as he was known in the 50's.

[@finnishculturalchannel]

@@TK8866275 It's a pity there doesn't seem to be any kind of interview with him available, for whatever reason

[@vesaroivainen]

Jaeger= hunter

[@mhh7544]

Hah hah Finland eventually fought with everybody both axis, and allies.

[@pvahanen]

Amazing but true.

[@pvahanen]

The decision-makers in war and politics found a small, tiny pinhole way to Finnish independence.

[@kmeanxneth]

Finland didn't fought with allies

[@nosmokejazwinski6297]

@@kmeanxnethyou forgot that Soviets were the allies

[@santtumoilanen3065]

im pretty sure someone already commented on this but allies never helped finland rather they attacked us thas why that alliance with germany was formed

[@heikkijhautanen4576]

I dont think they make soldiers like this anymoore!!! :/

[@seppoharkkonen5766]

also nazis burned lapland while getting out.
