Did General Oesch serve in any of the Heimosodat expeditions from 1918-1920?

Thanks!

Don't think so. After the Civil War he was transferred to the General Staff to command the Intelligence Section and on 27 December 1918 appointed Kaartin (Guard?) Jaeger Battalion Commander. On 11 Feb 1920 he was transferred to military headquarters, as assistant chief of staff. On 21 October 1920 he was appointed Viipuri Regiment commander. He remained there until 15 August 1924 when he was transferred to the War College where he taught tactics.

So no, he wasn't involved in any of the Heimosodat expeditions.

Thanks - that is what I thought but I wanted a second opinion!
