and where did I make that claim? If I did I have to withdraw it. But they are among the best in my opinion. Who is the best in your mind?

Meh, his submarine force was primarily aimed at the Merchant Navy rather than the Royal Navy.. Although i do admit that he came close to closing the supply lanes.  I was under the impression, however, that his surface fleet was far less successful..

that's something I have always wondered. everyone knows german, russian and allied commanders but none knows the leader of finnish armed forces that stopped the red bear invasion. and he was our president even. and voted to be the greatest finn of all time.

propably nobody except few historians. but studying history of a country helps you to understand it better in my mind. And I personally love history of all kind, especially WWII and ancient Rome. but back to topic before vadereclipse comes and says that all I do is spam.
