The interesting russian photo album appeared on a S-Petersburg resource - the Finnish defense, strengthenings at the front on the river Svir. I think, it will be interesting also to the Finnish companions.

Re: About the Finnish fortification on an isthmus Ladoga - Onega
Thank you very much.
Very interesting.
Quick look shows nice photos of the destroyed river Svir dam: http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 4151&hilit
...and also reveals how Finns had to leave the well fortified areas at quite good shape.
Regards, Juha

Hi thanks so much for this , I will be discussing it with my elderly mum over the next few days, and she was stationed here in 1944 with her Lotta unit
