Sgt (Ret) Heikinheimo Posted April 1, 2017 So the Finnish Defense Forces just got an order to mobilize. They are calling pretty much the whole reserve into service for a sudden wargame exercise around the eastern border after a flash build-up of russian armed forces along the Finnish border yesterday/last night. I have also been called to service because of the readiness battalion gig. I hope its nothing and we will be back soon, but in case its not, ya'll have a good one. Russian armored and artillery battalions amassing near Ylä-Urpala just 2-3 km from the Finnish south east border. Spoiler 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
