Soviet casualties of up to 1 million in the Winter war and about 300,000 in the continuation wars if not a bloody nose was pretty close to it. [img]smile.gif[/img]
By all accounts Finland lost 65,000 men killed and 145,000 wounded between '41 and '44
and adding the 22,000 dead 1,400 missing and 44,000 wounded in the Winter war, is a staggering number of casualties for such a small country.
