2 Figure Sketch by an unknown artist depicting Finnish ski troops—known to Soviet soldiers as the “White Death”— during the 1939–40 Winter War. Such small units of the Finnish army were able to make very effective guerrilla-style attacks on the Soviet troops, especially as the conventional Soviet forces struggled along the poor forest roads of northern Finland in the midst of harsh winter conditions.
