I rarely see anyone non-finnish discussing this subject since this is such a minor part of WW2. Anyone interested in this subject should read "Unknown Soldier" by Väinö Linna or watch one of the 2 movies, they have a special view on the war and there is nothing quite like it.
It is a side-story to the war, for sure, but an interesting one nevertheless. It is the only example of a people who took arms against Stalin and weren't absorbed totally into the Soviet sphere of influence. I'd say that it was as much diplomacy as it was dogged resistance to the Soviets on the battlefield.
I'm non Finnish,although I have met veterans of both the Winter War and Continuation war,living in an area with many Finnish immigrants and children of immigrants.I've always been fascinated by both wars,and amazed at the performance of the Finns,being vastly outnumbered,and poorly equipped,yet,just too stubborn to admit defeat.
