BlackJackSwagger asked – What the hell happened on the “Continuation War” front? I’d love to hear your take, in short, on what happened during that part of the (larger) conflict. How did Finland mount an offensive against the Soviet Union? Did they receive tactical/material assistance from Nazi Germany? How did they utilize that material and how did their standing military leadership interact or deal with their Allies during the conflict?

ABOUT TIK

History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question – “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.

This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.

Soldier of Three Armies Pt. 2 – Continuation War – Sabaton History 065 [Official]

Sabaton History
Published 30 Apr 2020

With a bounty on his head, the Red Army wants him dead, Soviet enemy number one. Second part of the Lauri Törni trilogy. The Winter War between Finland and the Soviet Union was over, but the world was further tumbling down into war. Finland saw itself trapped between two power blocks. A new arrangement with Nazi Germany gave men like Lauri Törni an opportunity to train with the newly established Waffen-SS. But it was an opportunity with lasting consequences.
