Post by Anton Bärtig »

Hello!
Iam member of the SS-gebirgsjäger Michael Gaibmair group. Iam the only officer of the group and that is the reason i am never sober while acting because everybody is serving me wery well. I am collecting weapons and most of the alive weapons of the group belongs to me.
Some of you might have seen me in Beltring wearing the Finnish summer uniform and sidecap, especially in the beertent or swimming in the stream.

Hello Stefan! I know the story. His real name is Lauri Törni. He is one of our war heroes in this country. After officerschool he was serving in SS as an Untersturmfuhrer for a some time , but he came back to Finnish front because of the continue war and he was a great leader of the company. Even one of our ex Precident was under his command. and so on you know the rest if you have read hte book.

That's the guy so it must all be true then,,some one said the film the green beret the John Wayne version is loosely based on him but that might be bull :roll:
I read the book some time ago fascinating how life can turn out for some people if I remember after the Soviet /Finish truce he went back to Germany and saw some action on the Easter front but where and with what unit the book does not say as it was written by a friend of his based on what he knew from conversations with Lauri
still all the best and might see you over here if you come to any of our splendid shows in the summer :D

I won't have that! There is only one true hero of Finland and that is Ari Vatenen!!

Yes you are right about Ari Vatanen, but do you mean rally or European parliament?
