Independence Day of Finland

[AckZel]

Yes! It's today! 88th Independence Day of Finland! Big celebrations again. And as a soldier I'm working of course. Already carried the regiment flag when laying flowers on grave of Knight of the Mannerheim Cross nr. 94. SrLtn Toivo Korte. I'll post pictures when I get one.

In Finland independence day is also remembrance day?

Would love to see some pictures!

I have always admired the people of Finland, especially after reading "A Frozen Hell" byWilliam Trotter, about the Winter War between Finland and Russia in 1939-1940.

For those who are unaware of this conflict, here is a site to peruse:

Long may the Finnish Flag wave!

That really doesn't look much like your earlier posts. And the "kilt" is too long.

May the wings of liberty never lose a feather!

Congratulations on Finland's Independence Day. Celebrate in your uniform and then change into the kilt for the real celebration of independence!
