THE WINTER WAR June 1941
FRAME 3 - THE CONTINUATION WAR -AXIS (Finnish)
Airmen,
Let me lay it all out...
Our suspicions about Russian intentions were correct.
The Russians have occupied the Baltic states and have installed puppet regimes there.
A tough and bloody battle was fought in the Winter War, but we preserved Finland's sovereignty.
It has now been 15 months since the end of the Winter War.
We have looked on Germany with skepticism in the past and tried to negotiate a trade deal with the
United Kingdom. However with the Fall of France and the UK cutting off all trade
with the Nordic countries, a Western-oriented policy is no longer an option.
Now the Russians are demanding mining rights and pro communist groups are organizing riots.
With the impending invasion of the Soviet Union, German Chancellor Adolf Hitler has had to reassess
his position regarding the selling of arms to Finland. In exchange, Finland will allow
German troops to transit through Finland.
Now, is the perfect time to regain territory lost to the Russians.
We must strike in the North to cut off supplies moving on the Murmansk Railway.
Meanwhile Finnish forces will launch an offensive through the Karelian Isthmus and the Ladoga Karelia.
FINNISH MISSION TARGETS
We must support our ground forces by weakening the Russian dug-in strong points along the front line. This will help our troops to break through the enemy lines and save many Finnish lives. Our scout planes have also pinpointed large Russian supply depos. It is critical we destroy these to starve their tanks and soldiers of fuel and supplies.
