Naked Finnish Soldiers


I'm going to the amazing SA-Kuva archive of Finnish military photos from World War II for today's series.  This photo of men entering a tent sauna in the forest was a favorite on my old tumblr.  Apparently the previous occupants left these guys a note stuck on a sapling.

  1. Those Finnish WW II soldiers certainly were a nude-loving bunch! Love the open, natural attitude!

    1. Yes, Jim, they were well known for that, and I believe the Finns remain rather nonchalant about nudity.
