    I laughed so hard at the end (and replayed it several times). 😂

      Haha, thanks. I had a fun time editing it. After a few beers in the forest you get some strange ideas 😂

    Joel! What beautiful country that is out there. It's hard to think what it must have been like that winter for these guys that were fighting. Did you ever get into any spots that you felt uneasy, like someone was watching you? I always pay a little more attention to those spots. Try it and see what I mean. Love your channel, man.

    An important place for my family. My grandfather fought on Road of Raate, preventing the Soviets from getting to his home, which was located nearby.

      Damn. Respect for him. Important battle and well fought. This Sunday there will be another video from here.

      @@TrueVikings When I was a kid, we visited Suomussalmi every year. There was many old men who talked about the battles and how it felt to know that if they lose the battle, the first thing to lose was their own homes and everything they had built with hard work. Hard to imagine these days.

    Being on the ridge was a mistake. They would have been on the reverse slope where they were both hidden and protected.

    Tsekkasitko ollenkaan ihan tuosta rannasta ? Jos se on ollut silloin sodan aikaan jo olemassa, niin sehän olisi ollut yksi potentiaalinen kohde ? Sotilaat uinu siinä ? Taskuista tippunut jotain ? Jne 🤔
