Thanks for that.They are a great find.Going off topic there are some German Stug tanks sitting in defence on the Romanian boarder if anyones interested.Just gotto find the website again..

Finnish Army auctioned today 3 StuG III wrecks (used as RPG targets), 14 Charioteers, and 4 Comets.

The highest price was 185000 Euros (StuG) 😮 The buyer was British, he bought several tanks.

Photos of the tanks (text in Finnish): http://www.mil.fi/liite/Psv-huutokauppa_luettelo_FIN.pdf

That would have been Cornelia Fort, who was giving instruction to a defense worker with the surname of Suomala in an Interstate Cadet* of Andrews Flying Service.

Who was Mr Suomala? His surname is Finnish.

An aerial photo at ploughing time would be very interesting, as the chalk rubble where the concrete was removed shows bright white through the thin soil.

Google Earth shows the “ghost lines” better.

I can’t remember the year, very early 70’s, the Red Arrows did a splendid display at Kaivopuisto, Helsinki, Finland. Yachts with too tall masts were moved away for the event.
