The Unknown Soldier

PALOAUKEA-June 1941

Right on!

Damn! Motherfuckers.

Machine Gun Company!

At ease.

The battalion is to be transferred
with vehicles to another location.

All unnecessary materials
should be returned.

Bring one pair of underwear, socks, and coat.

And the guns, of course.

The rest is going to the warehouse.
Hietanen is responsible. Hurry up.

-Where are we going? To Hell?
-Hurry up, now.

There is going to be trouble, boys.

The Germans are marching ahead,
and we are lagging behind.

The officers are afraid the Russians will come here.

The Russians have not attacked anyone.
The Germans have it all under control.

Vanhala. The battalion's horsemen said we're going to the Helsinki garrison.

All the old clothes will be swapped with new ones.
We're going to wear påsbyxor (baggy Viking pants, it's a joke)

I have heard.

Attention!

Keep going, keep going.

Do you know what it
says on the Scout belt?

"Be prepared. "

A cup of coffee and a pastry, please.

What will it be?

What did the girl sell to Rahikainen last night?

Coffee, And a pastry.
- We sell pastries as much as possible.

-Everything will be sold out.
-Would you look at that? There's a war afoot.

Your eyes are so beautiful,
I will never see again.

Hurry up, so the rest of us can shop as well.

We have enough time, Lieutenant.
How much tobacco can one get?

-How much do you want?
-A package, and ten pastries.

Now Move!

She's not going to be the mother of your children.
Then you have to have buttons on the collar.

All that matters is what's in the pants.

I'm going to miss you.

-I'm coming back.
-Are you sure?

-wait for me.
-I am.

Are you?

Yes.

I never betray my squad or my Flag

as long as I have the strength to do it...

-I will follow them and protect
them until the last drop of my blood.

Our Helper He amid the flood

Of mortal ills prevailing

For still our ancient foe-

Doth seek to work us woe

His craft and power are great-

And, armed with cruel hate.

On earth is not his equal

Did we in our own strength confide...

A majestic beginning.

First half of Platoon one, in this car, and the second in the next.

First and third! On the truck!

Second and fourth are waiting for the next vehicle.

-What the hell, Eki!
-Don't sit on my backpack!

-What the hell!
-Watch out, dammit!

Move.

Now we're done with this dump!
Goodbye forever, you shit hole!

I hope you are just so vile to all the new recruits!

Countrymen.
Our peace-loving people,-

-This is the second year, and we have pushed our forces to their limits-

-to build up the country after the Winter War,-

-We are again the victim of a brutal attack.

Once again we encounter the same enemy that for over 500 years-

-has brought devastating and bloody wars against our people.

The Russians will run when our guns begin to glow.

That is not something to brag about.
The Russians also have guns.

And the spirit disappears when it goes loose.

Those from Österbotten(a Finnish province)
must be tied to the trees so they do not start too early

North of KARELIA-4. JULY 1941

Wake up, men! It has started.

The guns scream! Hurry!

They are starting the artillery bombardment.

It is far away.
I don't hear the whistling.

The guns scream ...

We're going with the third company.
This will not be fun, you will have to take it easy.

It is best to aim at the height of the belt.

Keep in mind that they are only people.

Lead kills them too.

Lets go.

-Autio promised me two of the guns.
-I know it.

Shoot as many shots as you can, Ville.

See you there.

Forward.

They are already dead.

Kariluoto.

The artillery will shoot in front of the second platoon.
Then we move forward.

Do not let them stop.
Try to get all the way in one fell swoop.

Don't be left in the line of fire.

Good luck.

Fire!

-Forward, fourth!
-Forward!

Forward, fourth!

You must not be left in the line of fire! Forward!

Do not stop!

Get machine guns in position.

Forward ... Forward!

-Fire away!
-Fire away!

It's a tank.

-I doubt it.
-Only doubt. But it is a tank.

Have you seen it?
There will be a lot of berries this year.

It blooms so beautifully.

What?

What is this?

No, no, no, guys.
You have misunderstood.

This is not how you fight.

The others are already in position.

move over this swamp in one push.

Let's try this again, second lieutenant.

It will probably work out.

Hang on, coybow!

Forward!

Hurry up now!

Combat medic! Combat medic!

Fourth! Forward!

Not a single Russian fell.
I saw when we arrived.

Well here is one with his nose in the ground.

They don't care about their buddies.
They are left to crawl

Fucking hell.

Hello!
Is it cold there in Russian hell?

What did you find?

-Show me it.
-These are mine.

What is this?
Small coins, pennies.

What the hell is that? Long bearded Satan?

That's Lenin.

He is so Cockeyed that he can see both Sundays from mid-week.

-Boys, take a little Lavender perfume.
-Lieutenant.

Kariluoto.

It was a great start.
How did you feel?

It went great when we first got started.
It was hard to keep them going.

-Captain Kaene ...
-I heard it.

But I must thank you,
You did well.

Men, lets keep going

This is our time. Finland's time.

We're going to reclaim what Finland has lost.

We have the right to it.

Right?

"Is it cold there in Russian hell?"

I would not have made any stars if I was God.

I would have destroyed them.
What would I do with them otherwise?

God did not make them,
that is just nonsense.

Man is not created.

It was born in the sea. And that's it,
and from coal and other substances.

Simple people just get fooled
so that they are subordinate to the capitalists.

Coal?

In the sea? Coal?

Lahtinen, you're joking.

How in the hell could man be born in the ocean?

You would die in half a minute under water.

-You would be fine if you had gills
-Gills? No, what the hell.

People are made of flesh and bones.
It's something everyone knows.

-People were originally fish.
-Fish?

Even the capitalist scientists have admitted it.

No, what the hell ... A fish?

Vanhala. I am a perch (type of fish).
A perch is made of coal!

People will say what they want, but it is nature that creates things.

The higherups know which thread to pull in when it comes to money.

Now we're going forward again.
We will see how it ends.

They have plenty of men to put up against us.

-A Finnish soldier is equivalent to ten Russians.
-Maybe so.

But what do you do when the 11th comes?

move forward, damn it!
Forward, goddamn it!

Forward, men!

Three men and my best leader have fallen.

The entire battalion is stuck.
It's your day today if you can break through.

-You know that I do not skimp on words.
-I'm doing everything possible to get them going.

Forward, fourth!

Don't do it.
You sacrifice your life to no avail.

If we got a man with an explosive charge,
we can break thorugh.

-I'm going to try.
-I will go.

-It is my task, not yours.
-Your task is to keep the men moving forward.

Lehto! When I go, I will need constant suppressive fire.

-Forward, Lehto!
-Get him out!

They are retreating!

First platoon ... Viirilä!

The first and second to the right!
The third and fourth to the left! Mäntynen!

Mäntynen!

Viirilä.

Move forward.

We don't have time to evacuate anyone.

We must move on.

"Evil is not human, but many of us are weak"

"There is something good in every man,
though it may be hidden today"

Yes

-Have you gotten food?
-Yes, major.

-Oh. The boys have tobacco?
-Yes, major.

We roll Mahorka (cheap tobacco) into cigarettes

Really? How do they taste?

Like Mahorka, major.
As usual, Mahorka.

Of course.

-I found a potato!
-Potato?

-Switch carrier.
-Vanhala.

-I used to carry it longer.
-Stop whining. Get the gun mount.

I'm famished.

How long do these officers
think we can manage with these rations?

They have counted calories,
or whatever the hell it's called.

Go and complain, they will show
you a calculation that proves you're not hungry.

Lehto.
Don't you know that it is forbidden?

It is forbidden to kill, too.

I've never seen such a mess before!

Guys.

I don't believe in calories or
other supernatural, but one thing I know.

Lahtinen believes that calories
are invented by the capitalists.

I do not know anything about capitalism.

But if my father dies before me, then I get 9.5 acres ...

There's one!

See if he has friends.
Check the pockets.

Apparently, Great powers can also lack many things.

Are there more?

He could have blown us up and
himself into the air.

He's not that kind of man.
You can tell by looking at him.

Look, Russian.

Who will take him to command?

I will.
Into that direction now.

Go, now!

-What did he do?
-He's Dead.

Did he try to escape?
-Yes.

That was not necessary.
He was not a man like that.

You shot him down from behind.
He did not try to escape!

"From behind"? It's easier from behind
than from the front. Cry if you want.

Shoot if you want.
I'm not the judge in the court-martial.

The guy was terrified.

We do not start crying for the sake of a Russian man.

Yes well, here we go.

-How many days does the march last?
-The infantry has excellent experience.

A Finnish soldier can march for a whole week.

Out of my way!

Do not touch the car.

only throw dust in the eyes of the footman, damn it.

There may not be a gasoline shortage,
considering officers are taking their whores on trips.

Boys! The old border!

We are in Russia.

Now in this moment,
Hietan's boy is abroad!

Here our law does not apply.
From now on we are on the road.

One is on bargain cruises when you go over the border.

But others call it a precaution.

We are marching in the Karelian
country (Finnic peoples under Russian authority).

Here, old men sing
and their wives cry.

We should also sing and cry,
for now, the Russians will resist.

We have our own in front of us.
We will not reach the front right away.

We create a Big-Finland.
The cuttings are so great at the
moment that the sawdust is created!

-Finland will be a superpower.
-Soon we are at home and hitting the hay.

The HOME FRONT-AUGUST 1941

Yes well, Yes. You're the company commander.

We are the replacement crew.
Here are our papers.

They are under the Sergeant.

Yes, I was in the winter war.

I do not know why.
I have never done anyone any harm.

Get us in the same squad. We are neighbors and
fought together in the winter war.

This is not a reserve regiment.

Here, you are not in command.
It would ruin the discipline.

Ah, understand,
I did not know that.

I meant only that I will stick
together with Vargtassen, Lieutenant.

-Who?
-Vargtassen.

What's your name?

S-s-soldier Sus.

Susi?

-And what's your name?
-Rokka. Antero Rokka

People call me Antti

You act like such important types.
It would not be pleasant if everyone acted like this.

We'll be fine.
Take it easy. He is young.

We've done it before.
- Yes.

Damn, when they shoot their guns.
We shall be there soon.

Hi, Ensign. We're leaving today.

-Have you been to the front before?
-In Taipale. We were afraid.

We are from Näset. They took our farms, but not our lives.

We'll see if they can do it now.

I would go there to make up with the neighbor. Here I have nothing to do.

We take their cabins all the way to Smolensk (Russian city bordering Belarus).

People from Smolensk praise the Germans, -

-but on the way here I saw that they hit their heels a bit too much together.

But it's not our problem.
We don't care about Europe.

We take Karelia, and then we go home.

-Get ready.
-For what?

To attack.

Storm boats.
Now they will make us into sea creatures.

-Now we sit in the middle of this shit.
-then, in the water.

It's probably the same if you die in the water or on land.

Do not talk about death!
It gives me diarrhea.

-Listen, Ensign.
-Yes?

We are moving across the river soon.

I know.

There's nothing then,
Just take it easy.

Set up the machine gun in the bow.

Please, Comrade. You don't need it for such a short stretch.

And then it takes more time to land.

I am not your comrade,
I am your company commander.

There are plenty of guns at the bow.

You do as I command!

Forward!

Second! Get ready!

Sergeant!

Give me the cartridge belt.

Damn it! A machine gun.

Like that!
We are attacking them right away!

Take care of the cartridge belt, Baby!
Give me the machine gun!

-Get the machine gun. You take the grenades.
-Grenades.

Throw a grenade, then when they run up,
I will take care of them. Then we move forward.

Thow.

Magazine Change!

Give me the submachine gun.

These are good guns! We had too few of them during the winter war.

Don't be cocky, kid, or you'll die.

Corporal.

-What's your name?
-My name is Rokka.

First name is Antero.
I signed up before the young lieutenant.

-Your performance was fantastic.
-Save on the flattery.

You want to be a hero.
I don't give a damn about that sort of thing.

Advance when needed, otherwise, keep low

We are not here to be killed but to kill.

Yes.

Take tent liner. It is good for shelter.
Autumn rain will be starting soon.

-Are all alive?
-Yes, all is fine.

Soon we take Petroskoj, and then we go home. What do you think about it, Vanhala?

It will last for three days.

It'll just keep it, for you will not give me more.

It is clearly a sickly beaten horse.

You can see the tracks of the whip.
-Do not complain about the food.

-It meets all the requirements.
-Who throws that out?

The company's new Sergeant Sinkkonen.
The food is good under these conditions.

Under the circumstances, you should not kick my box.

It's not the horse's fault if it gets sticky over the years.

Better men than you
who complete their duty without complaining.

You have one major flaw,
You don't joke enough.

Here it will be fun.
Join our orchestra.

Take a utensil and can as drum.

-Can you hear the violins?
-What's this circus?

Our new supply officer is gloomy.

We would cheer him up, but he didn't like the music.

Stop playing the clown

We are marching in an hour.
Those who do not have a white piece of cloth, use white paper.

Team leaders are responsible for it.
Get started.

Sinkkonen

We are going to the wasteland tonight.

Eat the porridge, Paw, so you can keep up.

When will the Germans take Moscow?

Great stuff, boys.
The whole regiment in one row.

Give me your hand.

the flank maneuver is going well.
The enemy is not to be seen.

You're trying to bring all your clothes.

-I can not take them too, Riitaoja.
-Give up the backpack

Get the fuck up!

Give me your backpack! Damn it!
You are a real nuisance.

-Up with you!
-Don't kick him!

-One should shoot people like you.
-Just try!

Let it be.

All that crap you have to drag around.

Who goes?
-First.

The enemy is almost certainly there. Be on your guard.
Go to the road if 2 has passed.

I take Vanhala and Rahikainen, but not Riitaoja.

-Lahtinen selects one of his own.
-Sihvonen.

No talking.
Riitaoja is going to do his job.

-Where the hell are the others?
-Imagine if we went home to Finland?

We can go home and say that we got lost.

Stop complaining you.
I'm going a little ahead.

Riitaoja!

Let's get out of here

I don't want to be here and be killed.

-So, Lehto was already dead?
He did not respond when we shouted.

I really wonder.
I'm sure.

It's a strange mystery.
A strange conundrum.

How can someone shoot himself?

Rokka.
You're in charge of the first platoon.

Go to Sihvonen Lahtinen, and Susi goes to Rokka.

When we find some positions.

We are here, no matter what's coming.

We are waiting a bit as well, Vanhala.

Fire!

It did not work

-It will shoot soon!
-Let's go!

-Run!
-Back!

Thank you.

They got one on the mouth.
Now we give them your arse too.

They would then like to have nickel
from Petsamo.

And we are the generous of us.
We're going to give them all they can handle.

Yes well. Koskela.

Get ready.

They start to get too few men?

A no, boy.
They have both men and material in a ton.

If the men come to an end, so they send
15 mill. women. Old biddies.

It would become some hideous near matches.

Even Rahikainen could
received the Mannerheim Cross.

SOVIET KARELIA
SEPTEMBER 1941

A medic!

Soldiers! Remember who you are!

Not one step back! Soldiers!

Petroskoj is waiting!

Mäntynen! Come on!

-Now I'm going to my father ...
-Stay still

It will hurt more if I touch you.

Pray for me. I can't stand.

Our father, who is in the heavens!

Hallowed be thy name;

Thy Kingdom come;

thy will be done
as in heaven so on Earth!

Give us this day our daily bread;

and forgive us our trespasses,

-as we forgive
our debtors;

and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the Kingdom
and the power and the glory-

-forever.

Amen.

-Now we are in Russia.
-Petroskoj, Petroskoj ...
(Ethnically Finnic / Finnic-Karelian peoples under Russian administration)

And there we are. Damn it!

For the home, religion
and the fatherland, for fuck's sake.

We have fought for the Danish there?

Others are already making the best pieces.

This is a historic moment.
It is Finland's newest city.

PETROSKOJ-1. OCTOBER 1941

Wine factory is conquered!

-Mannerheim said ...
piss in your bottle.

The liquor store is conquered.
Here I go, hiv and hoi!

Ensign Kariluoto, eighth regiment,
first battalion, third company.

Welcome to Hermann Youth Association.
Here I decide what happens!

We conquered Petroskoj.
Mission accomplished.

The city fell quickly.

If you hang around here, you'll end up all alone

ONEGABORG, FORMER
PETROSKOJ, 12. OCTOBER 1941

Machine gun company!

Right!

move forward!

Don't just stand there idle.

Stalin's chaos ...

"Welcome to the Hermanns Youth Association! "

Now we are in a foreign country.

The campaign in Olonets and Svir was
completed when the river Svir was reached.

Troops were reorganized into an attack
on the Onegas and Onega cities-

-which at the time had yet the Russian name Petroskoj.

Finland's blue and white cross flag
waving is now over the liberated country.

What do you want, Reverend?

I'll take this.

-I also have canned goods from the United States.
-No, thank you.

Maybe next time, then.

-Was she a good girl?
-Yes.

We danced and smiled when the
Russians were shot down

Right in the forehead, right in the forehead
the Russians a bullet gets

Russian soldier with star red,
He is best when he is dead

Right in the forehead, right in the forehead
the Russians a bullet gets

We dance and laugh when the Russians shot
Right in the forehead, right in the forehead ...

We do not need girls either.

"Gogol's Street".
"Maksim Gork ... Gorkijs gate ".

"Lenin's Hill".

-Hi, Alexei!
-Hey!

-Alexei! "Down with the Russians."
-Down with the Russians, go Finland!

-A second time. "Down with the Russians."
-Down with the Russians.

-A second time.
-Down with the Russians.

Tanja.

-Alexei! "Down with the Russians!"
-Down with the Russians, go Finland!

-Good day.
-Good day.

Here we are again.

Did you get your tea?
- Yes, some chai tea.

And I brough some music.

A record disc.

Thank you.

Why are you sad, Veerukka?

Let her be. She misses her fiance.

Verutjka has no fiance.

Why have you come here?
I wish to be left alone.

It was you who started it.

You guys took my farm
Go and see how it looks in Näset now.

-You should have left us in peace.
-Hey, you!

Who was it who came?
Hitler!

But he's going to die.

Why did you turn your gun on me?

I couldn't have known who would turn against me.

But I know that war is hellish.
For both sides.

No matter who started it.
Everyone must suffer, even those...

... who have never done any harm.
like the children.

You said that we hurt people.

Hietanen gave tomorrow's bread ration to Alexei and Tanja.

Our men are sharing their own rations-

-with the children of the people (ethnic finnsh people under russian rule)
who were starving under the Bolsheviks.

You do not care for the children and you eat it all yourself.

Music.

That's Stalin's music

Shall we turn it on?

May I take that to remember you?

go ahead.

You should have stayed there to Unite the Finnish people.

We will not take Hietanen there again.
he will just get his heart broken.

-I am not weak.
-I'm just kidding.

I am a regular, carefree boy.
I don't care about anything.

Absolute cleanliness and order is required.

Rules for the internal service
should be followed to the letter.

The officers live by themselves in officer housing.

You should make sure that the order is exemplary.

Vargtassen and I are in the same
tedrikkergjeng and stick together.

I will stay with him, or he will
move to the suboffice class.

Shut up. You go where you are told to go.
Understood?

You shall not try that on me,
you know how it goes.

Do not make the assumtion that
I will let you treat me like a recruit

Attention!

At a standstill.

-Corporal Rokka.
-Yes, what is it now?

-You move to officer housing.
Understood?

I don't want to argue about it.
lieutenant, when will we be allowed leave?

I have a family and have been here for months.
I submitted an application.

-We haven't put them in yet.
-It is not too late yet.

I'm Antero. I'm joking
because you're younger than me.

Attention!

I shall punish Corporal
Rokka for disobedience -

-Four days of punishment
He will take four extra guard shifts

At a ease.

I sing about the black Sarah

A poor negro child so friendly

up there, there is no suffering.

-Company, prepare for departure!
-We're not leaving.

Company, wake up!

For the last time: get ready.

-Make Koskela the company commander.
Then we shall go

This is not the Red Guard where
you choose a company commander.

-Understood?
-No.

I command you for the last time.
Then, I will turn to other means.

It is time to get a move on!

Do not take too many unnecessary things.

Music boxes are fun to have,
but we do not have enough space for them.

- Where are we going?
- To Syväri (Svir River).

What the hell?
Why can not we stay here?

To Syväri?
-Get in!

- Hurry up now.
-In with you.

I made it!

Hell, where are we going?

On the third day of the month,
Korhonen and Peltola refused -

-in the vicinity of the enemy to obey
their officers orders during service.

Therefore, I condem
Korhonen and crewman Peltola-

-to the death for the said crime.

So ...

This verdict is executed to
show those who will not obey -

- that the army can not
afford to keep pacifists.

I hope and believe that -

- such a verdict will not have to be
settled in this manner again.

SYVARI-January 1942

Alert! Right ahead!

Who is it?

Who do you think?
Who else can it be?

It's about to get livley here.

If we have to go we will take the Maxim (machine gun).

I'll take lavetten (Maxim mount).

See you on the other side.

Come back! Who the hell
gave you permission to retreat?

They run!
We're going too!

Not before the others! Sihvonen!

-Hentinen is dead!
-Damn!

Määttä! Go help them!
I will keep the Russians back!

Pull!

Pull!

-Lahtinen!
-leave the machine gun!

You are all goddamn sheep!
You run away and leave the wounded!

Where is the machine gun and Lahtinen?

They were left there together.

This man did everything he could.
It was not his fault.

I don't care who is to blame.
I asked about the machine gun and Lahtinen.

We will regroup,
the enemy will arrive soon.

Hi, Ensign. If you need a good man,
you have one here.

The flanks are weak.
Take with you some men to secure the left flank.

Come with me, Sihvonen.
Ulvepote, give him your skis.

Together with me,
It's better this way.

Damn, this enemy is cunning.

They have sent a team to surround us,
My instincts were correct.

Come now.

Why are you hesitating?

There are full magazines
in the backpack.

I empty them and you reload them.

Put them in seperate stacks so they will not mix.
Take it easy.

We have nothing to be worried about.
There are those who will end up in trouble.

If you can sing, then humm softly.
It keeps the mood up.

The madness will begin at any time,
That will help.

That's how you build up a strategy in the mind.

The first is an officer.

Once his shadow falls on the grain there,
I'll finish him.

I have decided, afterwards,
the remainder will get their turn one at a time.

You have no idea what awaits you.

Soon, you'll see how the Lord calls them home.

Forgive them if they have sinned,-

-but forgive them soon.
for now they shall fall

-Where are you going?
- Nowhere.

Stay here, then. The magazines have been emptied.

It was that son of a bitch behind the tree.
You can't fool Rokka!

Damn you!

Dad has come home.

Dad, Dad!

Hi there.
I'm home for a week.

It's about time.

-Fy, that smell!
-Stop fighting, dad.

Good you came, the horse must be shoeed,
and then we have to pick up a firewood.

- That's how it should be done.
- We're going in.

Do you start waking up?

"Father, we must make Finland the big Finland! (uniting the finnish peoples)"
- Shall we?

What do you have there?

Such an old old man can't stand alone.

The 4. JUNE 1942

75-anniversary of Finland's March-

-the most wonderful and memorable of
all feast days in the history of Finland.

The highlight was when the Great
Germany's leader Adolf Hitler arrived -

-to congratulate Finland's Marshal personally-

-on their own and all of Germany's behalf.

Good.

Vodka and cognac.

-Mannerheim's spirits.
-Cheers, then.

-Now we drink for luck.
-For luck.

That there was nothing.
Now we find out the booze.

Like that, Yes. Homemade wine!

I may not be one of the best,
but I guess I've made a name?

-Tough guys.
-I'm going to go to town.

How do you want to cross Svir river?
- They have women working on the roads.

- What does the lieutenant say?
- You can go and come back.

It does not matter to me if you go,
Tomorrow we'll be leaving.

We must complete our task, otherwise we can do what we want.
Only go if you can remember that.

I will be back on time if I live.

What the hell are you going to do with the rug?

Who lies on bare earth?
You must have something underneath you.

He can do it enough.
He will get through the war without a scratch.

He can twist himself as slick as an eel,
so not even the bullets hit him.

There is no offense,-

-but it's not many times
Rahikainen has given the bullets a chance.

I don't know anything about that,
but we're all scared.

There is no one who is
not afraid of death.

Dance, Hietanen.
Dance now!

Poor people in Finland's cabins
breaks their links

Lidelsenes bitter lime they
have emptied to the bottom

-Damn rebel songs!
-Let him sing!

The people's noble army set out in battle

Poor people in Finland's
cabins breaks their links

Lidelsenes bitter lime they
have emptied to the bottom

I'm an airplane.

With the emblem of the
Socialist Council of Europe.

The plane crashes, Hietanen!

Where are you going, Koskela?
- To Jerusalem.

Mielonen.

Mielonen, damn it.
Are you a doorman?

Glorious is death, when bravely you lead

Seek in battle Glory for your country,
die for your city and your home

Why are you with zeal to protect the fatherland

Sacrificing your life for the
coming generations with glee

This is most suitable for the young
while still pretty-

-and in his hair
the wreath of the spring flowers

it is easy for women, where the state for men

He falls in the midst of the slaughter

Apparently he is still dead

And now the officers ' cheers.
Gentlemen.

Without a flinch,
We follow the path our officers lead.

Ville, old boy.

Who speaks Russian here?

Koskela from Finland.

He eats iron and destroys chains

Do you have something against me?

I speak Finnish, and it is best
that you also stick to Finnish.

Best ... Best ... Best gun ...
Alright.

Herdsman, Martti Kitunen.

Now I change my gear. Damn!

Calm down!

Damn it!
do you dance like this?!

Calm down!

Calm down.

Calm!

Cold! It is cold, boys

Two chests at one time.
My brothers are gone.

Hot!

-Try to get him to sleep.
-solo warrior.

Beautiful. Very beautiful.

What have you been drinking?

Home-made wine.

You take over this half the squad
and take them to Koskela and Hietala ...

... Hietanen ... wake up.

Hello!

Hey, old solo Warrior.

-Get him in bed.
-We're going to.

-Try at least.
-We will.

We came home ...

How are you, Grandpa?

Go back home.

Don't come here again.

Is this Lieutenant Koskelas three bunker?

Yes.

Is the Lieutenant, Lieutenant Koskela?

-Yes.
Can I speak with the Lieutenant?

It is possible.

Pvt. Honkajoki A, A1.

First A of the first name Aarne,
A stands for combat unit,-

-report to the Lieutenant's platoon.

I have been in the 50th Infantry Regiment's
2nd Machine Gun Company

- was wounded at the hospital and
was commanded for this purpose

I turn myself now to the service,
anxious to shed both my own-

-and the hospital's blood for the
fatherland and people's freedom.

Welcome, then. The last two goes
to the other half of the squad.

You do not seem to rely
on foreign weapons.

Given the technical development of
the equipment in the Great War,

- I found it necessary to
switch to new weapons.

- What do you do for work?
- Forestry, Sergeant.

Specifically, the collection of pine cones.

I'm an inventor. I'm currently
developing a perpetual motion.

-That is not possible to make.
-I think I'm going to rest for a while.

Name and age?

Pvt. Hauhia, Mr. Lieutenant.
I was just 19, Mr. Lieutenant.

Rokka. Take that boy with you next
time you have a guard duty. Show him around.

- Do you have any questions?

No, Mr. Lieutenant.

We tend not to say "Mr." here,
but it only applies to me.

Yes, Mr. Lieutenant.

That's fine.

I've been involved in air strikes,
but thats is, of course, nothing compared to real war.

A righteous war does not exist.
Here is the final room.

- Are there any flyers?
- Yes.

Russia even sends sketch paper to us.

Have you lost many?

Almost every day there are those that fall.
Go now.

Come on, Dad will teach you to fight.

Never go out alone.

Soldiers, you should not
believe your officers...

Here the shooters have their weapons and there
is the guard post. Can you see anything?

Your officers are
your dead enemies!

Do not read on duty like Ukkola.

Always remember this:
Never pop your head over the edge of the trench.

Almost all who have fallen kept
their heads over for too long.

Use the periscope. Do you see that?
That's how you do it

You can assassinate the fascist
officers and Lappo come here!

All the fascists from Lappo were murdered long ago!

Now they are at Laihela for a trip!

Finnish men!
Come and get bread.

Come here and you'll get
butter on your bread!

- He does that all the time.
- Finnish workers soldiers!

You shed their blood-

-while the Germans mutilate
their wives and sisters!

Yes, and the younger mothers
also get all they can endure!

- Stop shouting, hell.
- It was the neighbor who started.

There are 14 bodies there.
Remember where they are located.

So you do not mix the living
and the dead together. See.

That way. Just like that.
And keep your head down.

Good.

You'll pull the thread if they come.
It goes to the wooden bunker.

-And remember to keep your head down.
-Yes.

How does it feel to shoot a human being?

I have no idea.
I have only shot enemies.

-Are they not people?
-No.

Or ... I do not know.

I don't think about it.

Antti Rokka shoots the line and rings.
You will also do that.

Warriors shall we become

In the midst of the bullets we live

How long, who will we see again ...

Alarm!

- Salo and Sihvonen.
Get the boy away.

Nobody can say he did not know.

"With one was the Angel
surrounded by a heavenly host, "

-"that praised God and singing: "

"Glory be to God in the highest,
and peace on Earth"-

- "Among the people God loves!"

-Merry Christmas, soldiers.
-Merry Christmas, major!

Fair is creation

Fairer God’s heaven!

Blest is the marching pilgrim throng

Onward through lovely -

-Regions of beauty

We go to Paradise with song.

Ages are coming,

Ages are passing

Nations arise-

-and disappear.

Never the joyful-

-Message from heaven-

-Wanes through the soul’s brief sojourn here.

Merry Christmas, then.

Merry Christmas.

The time given to each of us is short.

So let's burn with a flame

Let's rage loudly
with the flames from the fire

To earth the earth becomes

Hear the Spirit in the high heavens.

Soldiers!
Do not believe the officers' lies!

Your officers are
your dead enemies!

Syväri - July 1943

What is this?
Who are you?

I am the guard post.

And a guard post should not be messed
with. He has the big powers.

-What are you doing?
-Storage lampfoot. Do not you see that?

It's begining to take shape
It will be a really nice one.

-Do you not understand that you are the guard?
-Of course I understand it.

Therefore, I sit here looking through the
periscope.

What is your name?

I will convey the order.
Understood

Rokka. It was Lammio.

He wants you and your team to
clean up at the staff's place.

The edges of the paths are to be
decorated with round stones.

-Round stones ...
-So you will not?

Good evening.

Bloody hell. Should I go sweeping
and setting stones along the paths?

I chose the job to
test your obedience.

- Do you think I will obey?
- It would be best.

Do you think I am scared?

Not at all.

If you can act like a soldier,
especially a commander,

- I can promise you the Mannerheim Cross..
(Highest Finish military decoration)

..and offer you a cigarette.

-In combat, you are the best fighter I know of.
-Yes, I am.

But you should not imagine it
justifies everything else.

You have the opportunity to correct
everything by doing the job I have given you.

You know what? I'm not going.

-It means a court martial.
-It means a lot else too!

You should not mess with me.

My wife, who is expecting a child,
reap the rye home at Näset.

And you set me to line up rocks
along the paths, you fool!

I won't do it! Do you understand that?!

I do what must be done in the war,
but I do not want to play.

court-martial me if you will,
but I'm not going to die like a dog.

Someone else will wipe up before me.
You should remember that.

Who are you, then?

Who are you?

Do not go away.

Everything is fine.

Do not go away.

Everything is okay.

-We are on the same side.
-Then there was nothing.

-A cigarette?
-I do not smoke.

You should also stop
It's a hell of a poison

Alarm, alarm!

Get up, you.
It was a wrestling match.

The hell.

What did he say?

He said they were tasked to take a prisoner,
but they did not succeed.

- A captain.
(The prisoner is the captian)

- A young captain.
- A big shot.

Do not report this.
They have promised extra leave for catching prisoners

Vanhala!
turn on the gramophone.

Do not be sad. We're in this shit together.
Where we suffer without distress.

We cut the lamp feet.
I'll teach you that.

- Who is this?
- This? It is the Baranov boy.

Baranov-boy?

I thought that we could write his
papers at the same time.

How did you catch a prisoner?
- he came to take me to Russia.

I said that it is not possible,
because I have to go to court.

Three dead, but I got him.
Baranov is a big shot. Captain.

How do you know?
- The boys interrogated him.

He was the leader of the patrol.

What are you like?
- You know that. I'm Rokkas Antti.

Farmer from Näset. At the moment,
I am a worker for the gun factory.

- Ossi. Take out the prisoner.
-Major.

Like that, Yes. They will
take good care of you.

Sit down.

Why do you, time and time again,
go against military discipline?

I do not give a crap about discipline.
I have never needed it.

I may like war.
I'd like to go back, Karelia.

I'm the kind of man whom
neither of you can break.

I'm not here for your sake,
I have wife and children.

And you want me to obey like
a fucking dog. Never in my life!

Do you think we are here to stand
in front of you and bow?

"Yes, my Lord. Yes, my Lord. "

No, that's not why.

What you call bending and bowing,
the outer signs of discipline.

And without it, there is no discipline.

They must understand that
not everyone is like you.

Where would you find an equally
tolerant company manager like me?

You have only followed your
own whims and not principles.

Get this young lieutenant. We write the Protocol,
I've had enough, damn it.

The battalion is doing very well without you.

No one is irreplaceable in the war,
no matter who he is.

I forgive you.
Until further notice.

From now on you obey,
like everyone else.

If you complain about this, you
make it a prestige case -

and in that case I will
start the process.

Your behavior will determine how it goes with you.
go now.

I kept on forgetting it.
you are allowed leave for catching prisoners.

with this, I will get 14 more days.
plus, it was a captain.

You will be grated leave.
I can not deny that you are entitled to it.

Submit your application
as soon as possible.

-You can go.
-Major.

Dad. Not go back there.

The war will end soon.

Eat your soup.

I am leaving now.

Syväri-December 1943

We're losing this war, Antti.

We are going to lose everything.

Do not worry.
Let the officers worry.

Attention!
Right about!

What the hell, soldiers!
You must behave! Right about!

Spread out!

We lose everything.

It's late so it's important
to have an evening prayer.

Preserve us from the enemy's misdeeds,
snipers and artillery.

The Food ration could have been larger-

-If you still have something left over to feed your children.

Give us good weather, so it's nicer to stand guard for you.

Moonlight is welcome
to relieve stress -

-and saves us flairs.

Protect all patrol men, guard
posts and horse carriages

The artillery men are not very careful.

Protect the commander,
chief general manager

- and also smaller sized men, if you have time.

Protect the army's Commander,
the battalion commander and battalion commander.

And above all, machine gun company's boss.

And in the end, both in General and in particular:

Protect the high lords of Finland.

So they never again hit their
heads in the Karelian talks.

Amen.

The retreat from Syväri - JUNE 1944

Good day. Now we are going to get out of here.

The enemy has started a major offensive on the Karelian Isthmus.

they are moving sharply
on both flanks.

Therefore, the regiment draws
back to the old border.

The battalion departure time is 06.00.
Finish time.

Put on your backpack.

Does it sit well?

-What about them?
-Leave them here. They will wait for us.

- Will we come back?
- Sure.

We are going to a very nice place.

Hurry up.
Get the cows out of the courtyard,
they are coming with us.

A taste from the Onega Lake.

The Lake was never Finland's border.

Air raids!

Yes well ...
-Salo is wounded.

-On the road, men.
-Forward!

Just go forward!

We run, we run.

For God and in the presence of the Church,
I ask you, Jorma Juhani Kariluoto:

Do you take Sirkka Linnea Klenberg
as your spouse,-

-to be faithful and love her in good
and evil days, until death do you part?

I do.

-Hey!
-Don't go, then.

Can you not apply to transfer to Helsinki?

It would probably go smoothly.

Yes ...

You have already done your part.

They need me there.
All the officers are needed at the front.

It is my duty to fight for Finland, Ingermanland, Karelia.
(Ethnic finns under Russian rule)

hello there!

I see you are still standing on your feet,
as they say, the weeds do not die easily.

God does not want you, and the devil
knows that he will eventually get you.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you.

- How are you?
- Here we are now. So far so good.

Second division is on the other side
of the road, first and fourth on this side.

The Hunter Division patrols the
flanks, There is no other reserve.

-Sarastie thought the border Creek line would hold.
-Maybe it will.

But both flanks are open.

I have some things in my backpack.

I'm going to change,
and then I take over the company.

Everything is over.

This may be the end.

There is no hope.
Nothing at all.

Then we fight without hope.

We've been doing that this whole time.

-How old are you?
-I was born in 1925, Sergeant.

19? I'm surprised. We were also young
when we started, but not children.

Sergeant? Where are the Russians,
So we may kill them?

Do not shout so loud. They may run away
If they get to hear that you have come.

Stay in the trench!
Down with you!

What the hell!
I told you to get into the foxhole!

You got a little on your nose.

It hurts so bad ...

Just take it easy.

One can live without eyes.

-See you if we survive. I'm coming.
- See you then.

Greet the boys many times.

Take care of yourself.

I can go by myself. I can go by myself ...

Who's shooting?
Is it our own?

- Help me! I'm burning!
- I'm not leaving you!

Grab my hand
I will try...

Help! Help!

Why did you leave me?

Captain, the enemy has divided the battalion.
Mr. captain. Lammio gave retreat order.

-Now you are the highest company commander.
-Call the Commander of the battalion.

Put me through to the Lieutenant Colonel.

Captain.

-The first squad.
-Move up everything you can.

-Hold the position at all costs.
I can walk around.

Damn! You must not go over,
you must hold the position.

What the hell.
A quick attack resolves the situation.

- Fight on. Solve the task.
- Yes, Colonel.

If we move slowly over the
bog, we will break out

- The order is ready.
- The line will not hold as it is now.

The Colonel knows the situation.
Explanations do not help.

Karjula does not know
what he demands.

The Russians have been there for
three hours and have dug in close.

It hurts for a bit, and then it's over.

You know our orders.

We should gather an attack squad.
The Russians have taken over batallion command post.

- We are making a counter attack.
- I'm your patrol.

Kariluoto attacks on the
other side of the road.

Come here, Asumaniemi.

-Corporal?
-You will come with me.

Forward!

Shoot at the machine gun by the pine tree!
Hell, shoot something. Give me fire support.

Cover me!

Cover me!

fuck!

Shit.

clear some trenches, and then we Attack!

Damn it!

We're not going forward!

-Do you have any hand grenades?
-No.

-Come on, then!
-Damn it!

Koskela! This way!

Forward, guys!

-Soldier.
-Lieutenant.

Notify Captain Kariluoto that
the command post is reclaimed -

And that major Sarastie has fallen.

Ukkola! Ukkola!

Form a line! Form a shooting line.

Now we go forward!

We do not give up!
4. Fourth fills the hole. Forward!

Attack!
Forward!

Forward!

Orderly!

Koskela could not continue the attack now.

-He suggests that you wait ...
-Wait for what?

This is our only chance to break through!

Tell Koskela that we move forward.

- We are going back!
- Fourth, forward!

The battalion will not continue the attack under my command.

You do not leave the positions.

Lieutenant.
The enemy is advancing on the Creek line.

We risk being surrounded.
We are pulling back.

-The equipment must be brought in.
-I'll bring the batallion, over.

It may be turned off for a while.
All of the wounded to the north side of the road.

-The fallen? We carried the captain here.
-We have enough with just the living.

Get the companies together. Fast!

We throw the machine guns in the lake.

One we keep as a memory.
Understand?

- What difference does it make?
- throw them in.

Yes well.

That's the way to do it.

Goodbye, you fucking tease!

Get the wounded, then take departure.
Viirilei takes the lead.

After me.

Hurry up now.

Vanhala ...
Cover me with something.

No one other than the wounded will be on the truck.

Shit! where was
the reserve?

Here you are like cowards
and hide without taking shooting positions.

Because of this hasty assessment
we lost our best position.

-The men are paralyzed by the losses.
-I know the situation!

Lead the battalion, until Lammio comes.
Ovaska gets the machine guns.

I threw them into the lake to get all the wounded. We only have one now.

In the water? What the Hell, Lieutenant!

This is mutiny!
You are helping the enemy on purpose!

The weapons were to be taken with you.
you're machine gunners, not medics!

You are the battalion commander,
not a nurse!

And you men: pay attention!

Are you sheep or Finnish soldiers?

Hold the position,
or die in the attempt.

Shame on you, damn it!

I could not live with myself if I were like you!

Now get in position.

Hold the positions.

-They wil break us!
-No.

Hold the positions.

- Take the explosives and come.
- It's not possible.

Tank grenade.

Let's go!

Faster, faster!

The enemy has broken through.
The third company is in panic.

you fucking sheep!
Not one more step!

In position!
Whoever runs is dead!

Not one more step!

The tanks are coming!

Halt! Where you going? Stop! Stop,
for the last time! Where you going?

Home, and to fuck wolves.

In accordance with the law of war
I sentenced the traitor to death.

This applies to Finland.

Get in position, damn it!

In position!

-Find Cover!
-Fast!

Do not flee!

Do not flee! In Position

In position!

Help me!

Keep more distance from each other.
more distance!

The bike is broken.
Do you have space?

We have never run dirt on Sundays!

forget the bike
go with the next carriage.

Private Korpela.
What did you say?

I said what I said! What fucking idiot takes a ride behind me?

Fruit flies tend to stick to horses.
Are they going to go to the people now?

Search for cover!

Off you go!

Just shoot, you bastard! Just shoot!

THE LAST LINE OF DEFENSE
JULY 1944

Do you remember when we swam in
the Vuoksen river When we were little?

We'll probably never see the Vuoksen again.

- Now I can barley remember the sound.
- We'll swim there again.

No one comes this far.

Do not save the sugar, boys.

For it is going to be wet.
We're going to swim for a while.

-The Creek it is just to jump over.
-Shut up, kid.

Eat up the sugar before it gets wet.
The officers said that we will hold the position.

Why can I not tollerate the officers?

I have no idea.

Have you ever thought
that maybe you're wrong?

-Me?
-Yes.

I stick to facts while they
stick to their vanities.

Karelia is lost. The war is lost.

I have nothing more to lose. Now I'm trying just to get paid for Karelia.

Soon we will have to fight, boys!

Antti, get away from there.
Get into the trenches.

Let's get out.

- We are pulling back.
- You too, Ulvepote.

Back, boys!

The young ones go first.
Get with the machine gun, Määttä!

Faster!

- They're coming over! I'm leaving now.
- We are leaving.

Go over, Ulvepote.
Go now!

-Antti!
-How did it go?

Leave me.

Rokka!

Cover us!

Antti, you were hit.
I heard that they hit you.

Form a combat patrol, Vanhala.
We must regain the defence positions.

-Do you see the body over there?
-Yes.

It is a machine gun there.
Get down the trench, and knock them out.

Still, I'm always in the grave.
Either in one or in my own.

-I take Asumaniemi and Honkajoki.
-We provide fire support.

I dare not go voluntarily.
I must be ordered.

-Then I order you.
-there will be something completely different.

Give me the machine gun.

Come on!

-Damn it, boy!
-Are you ready with grenades?

Throw to the right.

The Russians are standing.

Forward!

- We did it.
- Vanhala squad. Beautiful!

The fatherland will not forget you.

I'm out of magazines.

The TRUCE-4. SEPTEMBER 1944

I can't take much more.!
-Take Cover!

I need to get out! I want to get out!
Let me go!

The loser is pressed down in the shoes,
That's just how it is.

Imagine if you also used bow and arrows.

Honorable citizens. The situation is the following:

We have taken the first step-

-to recover a friendly relationship to our great neighbor to the East.

We have taken a step on a road
where there may be hidden hazards.

We still do not know what
conditions are imposed on us.

But since our neighbor to the east has
not demanded unconditional surrender-

-we consider us as committed-

-to meet the Soviet Government's and their allies ' terms-

-to show our sincere commitment to peace.
