Suomussalmi Heroes Cemetery 1939-1940▪️1941-1944. There are 282 buried in this tiny plot who died during #WinterWar & #ContinuationWar! The youngest of whom is just 13! An interesting place with a very different feel to any other cemetery I have visited. sotasampo.fi/en/cemeteries/…

Similarly, Finland temporarily sided with Nazi Germany b/c of evil Communist Russia (during the #ContinuationWar).

This is the history from #WWII that #Finns don't enjoy talking about. My view. This was the #ContinuationWar, when #Finland aligned with #NaziGermany 1941-44. They then fought each other in the #LaplandWar, 1944-45. yle.fi/a/3-12598549

Ronan Browne It marks end of #LaplandWar against Nazis. 1st war #WinterWar was in defense against the USSR (1939-40). The #ContinuationWar was war to reclaim stolen land by the USSR, "allied" with Nazi Germany (1941-44). They then fought the Nazis 1944-45. theguardian.com/world/2018/feb…
