ARCTIC WARFARE with Finnish Defence Force 'Jaeger Brigade' and Allies

In Lapland, northern Finland, where temperatures regularly drop below -20 degrees Celsius, Finnish instructors from the Finnish Defence Forces’ Jaeger Brigade run different courses for military personnel from various NATO countries.
In this iteration, course participants came from France, the United Kingdom, the United States as well as Finland.
The course focuses on subjects such as using layered clothing, protecting against and treatment of injuries related to frostbite, sustaining performance capability, making fires, developing cross-country skiing skills and rescuing from the ice.

It's not just the hot dessert and jungle condition you'll need to train. Russia is cold, just like Finland. Finland gives that winter training. Finland and NATO strong

I have done everything you see here in the Swedish Army back in 1978-1979. I loved it then and I love it today. I enjoy watching these tough Brits and Americans having a good time with the Finns!

Thought they were Finnish soldiers taking the bath so really surprised to see them Americans taking it so smoothly, tough guys!

Very important exercise, if you get wet you will die without proper training.
