I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Simo Häyhä was the epitome of "terrifyingly badass marksman," and truly earned the nickname 'The White Death.' Among other amazing feats, he managed to survive the forest he was in being carpet bombed with only some damage to his coat.
Most of Soviet casualties came from getting ambushed while moving through forests. Finns were superb at guerilla warfare. Soviets deployed a lot Finnish tactics against Germans while behind enemy lines during WW2. Don't fuck with Finland, indeed.
