Lentäjien sotaa

The War of Pilots is a documentary film about the wartime efforts of Finnish pilots. It began with rudimentary planes derided as “flying looms,” progressed to dogfights in clumsy Fokkers, and reached the celebrated “Pearls of the Sky” Brewsters, which made an impression with their mere sound. The nimble Blenheim bomber, a marvel of the Winter War, aged into a museum piece during the war years. Yet even it, nicknamed “Tin Heikki,” was sent into the Lapland War against German anti-aircraft defenses.

Let’s not forget the mechanics who serviced the planes under tarps in -40°C weather, pumping fuel from barrels through lambskin chamois filters.

Rusinoita pullassa: Vihreät sisaret sotilaskotityössä vuodesta 1918

The Green Sisters have been serving in military canteens since 1918. Every Finnish conscript and veteran of the last wars appreciates the military canteen, whose over 90-year history is now, for the first time, brought to a wider audience in the form of a video documentary. In the documentary, about ten sisters who served during the Winter and Continuation Wars recall their experiences and anecdotes from their work with military canteens during both wartime and peacetime.

Regarding the wartime years, the documentary sheds light on a rarely discussed topic: women in active war zones. Few people know that the Military Canteen Organization is the oldest continuously operating national defense organization in Finland. Military canteen sisters contribute nearly 200,000 hours of voluntary work annually to support conscripts, bringing warmth and comfort to garrisons, camps, and military exercises.

While comparing wartime and peacetime military canteen work is challenging, the friendly smile of a sister behind the counter and the scent of freshly baked buns and coffee have remained unchanged since the founding of the military canteen.
