Nice pics, what part of the world is that? Looks like a lovely pine forest....training in Finland? Very nice if so. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah theyb are from my homeland, the fuckin Finland. All those exercises were almost at the same time, so as u can see, a bit of a weather difference, even in a small country like ours. And you are more than welcome.>:{
Great pics. That looks like it was quite a large scale exercise.
They all are large scale. Country is divided in 3 defence sectors, Northern, Eastern and Western. Basically one exercise contains the whole sector. Two Brigades fightning each other for some 2 weeks at a time, 7-10 times in a year. If you are taken to officer school, living and fightning in the woods takes more of your time. I had an year with 200+ days in the wild.
Great pictures Mikko!
Photographer has a good eye - thanks for sharing :)
Sounds like a blast. ;) In my early days working in a Brigade HQ, we spent about 200+ days out playing; from small Unit Ex's to large scale Brigade one's. It's rare that we have anything larger than a Brigade level Exercise any more. Considering there's only 3 full Regular Force Brigades here in Canada and they are spread out across the country pretty good, it costs a fortune to move us all into a "playground" large enough.
