Our traditional winter training happening was arranged for the third time in a row. As in previous years the
focus was in winter survival skills such as shelter building and making a campfire.
Military training was not forgotten either, and we also had a great "Kameradenschaftabend" where
re-enactors across Europe portrayed Finnish and German troops and had a great party together.
The weather was excellent - temperatures as low as -33°C were documented and sun kept shining during days.
Road sign in training area. This year we had a completely new training area with several buildings, separate tent area and
plenty of space to roam around. The area was by a lake, fronzen lake was used as parade ground.
This road leads to tent area
Finnish army tent and weapon storage
Headquarters and "Soldatenheim" were located in old log house
"Tagesordnung" was displayed in HQ wall for everyone to see and read
Küche, first aid post and sauna were located in wooden building by the lake. Kitchen staff and SS-Junker Rademacher are
discussing the schedule: when to eat and when to have training. Nobody can go along without eating for very long!
