They did not. If I recall correctly they were called the " Sisu " unit but never did take part in the battle because 1) not enough time to train as a unit for warfare 2) more value as a propaganda unit 3) not that many men ( some 100+ wasnīt it? ). Itīs a long time since I read the book so I donīt recall the number of men precisely but it was not that huge to make a difference anywhere in the front.Unfortunately.
