Secret Photos From A Finnish Defence Forces’ Safe
Sixty years on, there are no grounds to withhold images kept in a Finnish Defence Forces’ safe. The dull-looking cardboard box that contains three envelopes is full of horrific images from the Winter War (1939-40) and the Continuation War (1941-44). The box has been stored along with numerous plastic folders in a tall safe at the Finnish Defence Forces picture archives, in the Santahamina garrison in Helsinki The first envelope contains pictures of a village in Finnish Lapland that was destroyed by Soviet partisans who crossed the border. |
