FORGOTTEN

I forgot to mention that MjGen Talvela - victor of Tolvajärvi-Äglijärvi (see post above) succeded LtGen Heinrichs as CO 3rd Army Corps.

An 1st Army Corps was organised and was commanded by MjGen Tavetti Laatikainen (1886-1954). Like most of the Finnish Generals he had a civilian education. In his case he was an elementary school teacher ending up as a General of Infantry.

Mannerheim Cross nr 17 3rd Oct 1941.
