Makes me wonder, did the Finns view the fights after the "Moscow Armistice", in the same romantic kind of way?

Nice covers indeed, Jan.

Well yes got the diaries today and I couldnt wish for more, over 100 pages of memories, names of German soldiers who passed and descriptions from Kutsa East of Salla in the summer of 1944. Russian bombers firing, depictions from a field movie theater and two great photos of the young Lotta and her boyfriend from Vienna with a note that he disappeared after a raid in the Russian sector of Vienna in 1946. I wish Dimas or someone else could arrange for a field trip to the site were she worked in june 1944. Excavating it would be a great addition to the story.

Maybe when you said "Well yes..." you were referring to something else. My bad. You will make a tread about those, right?

Yes I will. The names and photos of the girl and the Gebirgsjäger I ve decided not to publish over the net. I will start translating tomorrow. Apparently there were Swedish SS men in there also which is new to me.
