When your brother is in Helsinki, ask him to visit the Finnish War Museum and get a picture with Field Marshal Gustav Mannerheim (the savior of Finland). If he has time, of course. The letters I read from Finnish soldiers to their parents and wives during the Russo-Finnish Wars (1939; 1940-44) were incredible. The Finns felt bad about killing so many Russian youths led by idiotic Soviet officers. Sounds familiar?
