Hi!
I'm researching and writing about Finlander that has fought under The Stars and Stripes.
Right now I'm focusing on sex recipients of the congressional Medal of Honor. These hare the men I have found at this point.
- Axel L. Sundquist
- John Eglit
- Henry Hendrickson
- Axel Westermark
- Nick Erickson
- Johannes S. Anderson
Any comment or information are most welcome.

Yours,

K-G Olin

Default Always liked the Fins!

Kicked Soviet butt during WWII. Way to go!

Sorry I don't know anything about these men, except to say, Thank you Finland for these heroes. Also, thank you all for repaying your WWII debt back to the US. Most countries did not.

Thank you Finland!

Greetings from a new member! My parents came from Finland in '47, I was born in '48. My father was in the Finnish air force in WWII, and I was in Vietnam in 69-70.
