Cool post! Literally!
The Winter War is a fascinating era of history that not many people know about as it gets overshadowed by WWII.

can you give us some background of this find. How did they find the tanks. Can you tell us more of the structure that was found also. I'm a dive instructor and curious as to the method of location and background of the research that led to the find. Now these brave men can have a proper funeral

Fantastic find.  |
Det vi vet er s uendelig lite mot det som har hendt. Arkeologen er som den som gr langs en strand og finner smtterier, skyllet i land fra et forsvunnet skib. Men selve skibet som gikk i dypet med menneskene fr han aldri se.
