These photographs comes from my uncle Eino Sikalas albums, he fought in the Finnish army during WWII. This film is a tribute to all Finnish soldiers who fought and died in this war.

Music by Jean Sibelius: Andante Festivo. Editing and guitar Ove Persson.

  • Grandfather JP6. in memoriam. 2 Years on Finnish Jaeger frontline in -42 to -44. R.I.P. 2004. I'd love to be as you were. -loving eyes... your daughters son.

  • The defense of your land and your people must never cease to be honored.

    It is not just a way to honor the heroes but also to remind the invaders for the crimes they committed.

    Glory to Finland!

  • You have done well to make this video...my ancestors are from Vaasa province and went to America from 1893 to 1902 and made their homes in Upper Peninsula of Michigan where many Finns went.

  • Itse mietin miltä esim minkälainen tunnelma oli niisä perheissä joissa isät, sedät ja enot kuolivat

  • Itsekin rupesin kerran ajattelemaan, omaa isoisääni joka 16 vuotiaana sotaan meni, että minkähän laista oli elämä silloin, ja minkälaista se sota oikeasti on vaikka eihän sitä voi itsetietää kun en ole onneksi sotaan joutunut

  • i'm surprised how young they are.

    Children going to war. It's terrible really. :(

  • Kaippa se tykistö tulessa istuminen ja ihmisten ampuminen todella muuttaa miestä :/
