    1. Hi Rick, As a matter of fact they were liberated. Lawfully elected government asked for German help against bolshevik backed reds. People of Helsinki were under unlawful revolutionary government. It is another matter if official name of the medal happens to be something else. I am not sure. I do not want to get involved with political argument. I am sure Mr. Jani Tiainen could help with the correct name. I think You are correct, "Capture" does not sound right. Thanks, P.
    2. The German expedition to Finland landed in Hanko, Finland, on April 3. 1918. Commander: Generalmajor Graf R?diger von der Goltz is in the picture on your left. I have several pictures of German troops in Finland, taken by finnish photographers. I would like to get in touch with person who might have pictures of german troops in Finland, taken by their own photographer.
    3. Finnish Jaegers on Eastern Front.This picture wass taken in Latvia, Near Riga. I assume 1916-1917. Regards, peter
    4. Hi Bernhard, You are right. Look at the picture couple postings ago. Heinrichs is no. 19. Sincerely, Petteri
    5. Hi, This is one picture of J'eger officers of 27. (saks.) in brackets means German all others are Finns.
    6. Hi Alexandre, Ihave B/W picture of Ven?j?nsaari medal. Colours are:side stribes black, then red and blue on the centre I do not know the color of the metal. I visited Ven?j?nsaari two years ago. I am also surprised that there is medal for Patterinm?ki battle. Patterinm?ki is in Viipuri and I was born about half a mile from there.
