MikeT Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 I have been working on snow uniforms for the Finnish army. I would like the opinion of someone that has more correct info than I. I also would like to know exactly what color Finnish helmets were painted. My uniform book has them in grey but I also understand that they were more "apple grey" in color. Anyone with any knowledge please contact me at desertcmt@attbi.com MikeT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mike Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 No, ther eisn't. Not one. Just a bunch of disgruntled Lapplanders whoa re brassed off at ever having to see the sun at all and who have never forgiven the Finns for ever being Swedish at all!!

Snarker Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 Mike T, I think the Finnish government made it mandatory for all male Finns between the ages of 8 and 80 to purchase CMBB and register in this forum. Hope your mailbox holds more than 5 meg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engel Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 Finns used a whole big bunch of mismatching helmets in clashing colours and stunned the Soviets with the appalling lack of combat fashion sense. Anyway, the following page has a pretty comprehensive list with pics. http://netti.nic.fi/~junkyard/helmets.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
