Evening!
I have been doing some research about the 1. Divisioona at Seesjärvi during 1943, from what i understand there was about a years gap (1943) where fighting was not so heavy and it wasn't until June 1944 that the conflict picked up again between the 1 Division and the 176th Russian Division. I found a map from 1944 and wondered if the placement of the 35 JR (at Maselgskaya) had shifted much since Dec 1943? can't manage to find a map from Dec 1943.
Many Thanks
TJames

The positions of the 35th Infantry Regiment on 18 December 1943. The right side of the map sketch is based on 1:20 000 map 5333 09 (Maaselkä), while the left side of the sketch is drawn based on 1:20 000 map 5333 06 (Seesjärven Suurlahti).TJames wrote:I found a map from 1944 and wondered if the placement of the 35 JR (at Maselgskaya) had shifted much since Dec 1943? can't manage to find a map from Dec 1943.
Based on the Finnish intelligence, they were facing Soviet 367th Rifle Division at the time.

Afternoon!
Thanks very much for the maps! Makes more sense now seeing the lay out of the regiment around the time near seesjärvi.
