What a fascinating individual. I've never heard of him until now, though.

Your welcome.:salute:
Here he is well known.
In Pori Brigade where i served, his units traditions are being preserved.
The Detachment Törni memorial is situated next to the Reconnaissance Company and the Detachment Törni Guild has organized events there also.
