    Sorry to burst your bubble, Mr. Geographically-challenged, but nobody in Indiana was ever called a hillbilly for the simple reason that Indiana lacks respectable hills. You're thinking of our neighbors to the east and southeast who infest the Appalachians. Be advised that where you are concerned I use the word "thinking" with great hesitation and in more figurative terms than in a literal sense. :D:D:D

    Can you tell us what you've been up to for the last few years since you disappeared or is that classified? [/QB]

    I moved closer to the Russian border, because I hate'em bastards! New job, new house, I hate them too! :mad:

    And I also want to take this opportunity to disassociate myself from the more extreme views of my fellow countrymen. Not all Finns are hypernationalistic tossers smarting over old wrongs.

    How cute. If this insult is directed at me, just read my posts and tell me where these "extreme views " are presented. Finnish front in 1944 is a "forgotten battle" in eastern front historiography outside Finnish borders. Some tidbits of facts here and there about it when eastern front is discussed doesn't hurt anybody.

    If the attempt was anything more then half hearted, for example if Finalnd was strategically important for some strange reason, the result would have been Helsinki looking like Berlin circa 1945. Buildings reduced to rubble and Soviet troops going on a raping spree of massive proportions.

    Well, the Soviets tried to bomb the city into oblivion in 1944, but thanks to the extensive counter-intelligence work they were bluffed to bomb the island of Vuosaari, which was made to look like the city from the air.

    Also the mines of Petsamo produced 75% of all the nickel for the German war machine, so you have your strategic importance right there. Don't know really what the strategic importance was in 1939, but you have to ask the Russians why they were so eager to invade another small nation after the Baltic States. There are always excuses, of course.

  4. To be fair, Soviet Union didn't exactly get its ass kicked, but against a nation of 3.5 million people only managed minor victories (in CM terms) in both occasions. Also, if Soviet Union had an opportunity to fully commit its forces against this minor nation, there's no doubt how it would have ended.

    On a related note Finnish national ice hockey team just beat Russians at Moscow 2-1. Sweet. ;)

    Well if I was being contrary as usual on this ******* board I'd say something about Finland being the only Axis nation to never apologise, but instead revel, in its role.

    For a closing shot I'd mention that they surrendered twice and accomplished nothing aside from helping to kill millions of innocent civilians in Leningrad.

    No wonder they are proud...How am I doing?

    Pretty well for an ignoramus.

    You know what I love? Getting the drop on Keke's T-34 from less than 150 metres with my PzIV and missing not once, but twice.

    The gunner couldn't hit the broad side of a

    And, to top it all off, when the T-34 rightfully caps his ass, all nine grenadiers riding shotgun are liquified. So useless gunner = 13 casualties.

    It's too nice a day for the rage and hatred I feel right now. :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Who else would order a Pz-IVh, with infantry riding on it, to charge full ahead against 3 T-34/85s? :confused: Don't blame the gunner, maggot. :mad:
