LOL :D There aren't many Finnish ones? :confused: Sorry. :)

Well, Finland had Mannerheim who repulsed the Russians in '40, but I was referring to Belgium...;)

Oh well, I'd always thought the diffrence in winter gear came from the Russians having good stuff and the Germans having bad, but it seem to be the Russians have bad stuff while the Germans had worse :)

Well in the Winter War, Russian winter doctrine was so terrible that the ski troops would walk to battle and then don their skis to fight. Duh. Finns of course would ski around the flanks of vanguard russian units and then remove their skis to fight. I don't know how the hell the russians thought they could fight on skis. Their winter gear, particualrily thier skis were so bad that when captured, the Finns only used them as firewood. Finland and Canada share the distinction of having the best light infantry of the war. :D
