No hyvä kun ilmoitit, minulla on täällä koulussa, Jamissa eräs kaveri joka kävi tiedustelupuolen pari vuotta sitten. Häneltä
sain myös tietää että Erikoisjääkäreille
hankitaan Mersun uusia maastureita. Kun
olin Kaliperi lehden suuressa vaimennintestissä Joensuun SAR:in edustajana
paikalla oli Erikoisjääkärilinjan kouluttaja
Tommi Kivenjuuri.

Not meant to insult, I guess I was in a weird mood that night. Have to hand it to the Finnish, they really know how to fight (Remember the WW2 / Russians?)
I used to think Finnish was a Germanic langauge (shows how much I know), but my German teacher told me it's actually related Russian (Correct me if I'm wrong).
I'll shut up now.

No harm done. I actually thought that was
quite funny.

Negative, Paintman. Suomi (Finnish to us non-Finns) has no relation to Russian, nor to any Indo-European language.

It belongs to the Finno-Ugrian branch of the Ural-Altaic family of languages. It is a cognate language of Estonian and Lapp, a somewhat more distant relative of Magyar (Hungarian), and a very distant relative to more than 100 others spoken all over the steppes of Central Asia, including Mongolian and Turkish.

I don't speak it either. http://www.specialoperations.com/ubboard/wink.gif


BTW, here's a link — in English! — to an excellent site on the development of air-to-air tactics during the Winter War. Some of the basic concepts still in use today date from that era.

::Slaps forehead:: Doh!
Now that you mention the asian link, I realize that my teacher had told me it was distantly related to asia, so I guess a case of faulty memory. Thanks for the correction.

I remember in World History class (which is a joke) in my sophomore year high school when our teacher said this much of the invasion of Finland in WW2(Exact quote): "So the Russians invaded Finland, and, well, they kicked their butts. Moving on to..." Not enough emphasis on history in school, but thats a whole different thread and forum.

Thanks, for the great link, I'll get some good reading out of that.
