White Death: The Sniper Who Killed 700 - Cole - 03-20-2010 Interesting small article about Simo Häyhä, a Finn sniper during the Winter War with an outstanding kill record. Most interesting for me was that the Red Army not only deployed snipers targeting him specifically but also special artillery units. The very first photograph was used on a S&T magazine with the Winter War game that I used to play as a kid. http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/white-death-simo-hayh/20951 RE: White Death: The Sniper Who Killed 700 - Von Luck - 03-20-2010 (03-20-2010, 12:43 AM)Cole Wrote: Interesting small article about Simo Häyhä, a Finn sniper during the Winter War with an outstanding kill record.
