The following early morning the soldiers wake to the noise of guns - the battle has actually begun. The Finnish troops assault and also swiftly move across the boundary. The young, anxious novices of the company obtain their baptism of fire, as well as the men become accustomed to death and also the difficulties of war. Under strength and also terribly equipped they deal with a remarkable enemy. The listings of heroes and also of the dead appear endless.
