Unreal... with the exception of the mold on the cigars, nearly everything looks like it was buried yesterday. A great find!

Woinderful find, but I am still curious---why was edde only interested in the booze? hmmm hmmmm?
The impression that I have is that he was hiding all identity of being in the military during the final days.. Civilains were treated differently from the military -- unless you were a hapless, comely female.
The presence of the Cigars, and Edd's favorite, the rum, would alone identfy him as an Military Officer, since no civilian would ordinarily have those things. So they had to be buried also, in the hopes of digging it up later.
Research his identification.
Lot's of fun eh?

wonderful find. in a strange sort of manner.
i imagine that the site was a bunker, and the person who "buried" that box, may be interred in the same hole.
the winter war was just a taste of the five following years.
i read somewhere that 1.5 million russian troops were fed into the meat grinder in finland.
the fin were the only nation to resist the soviet union and remain a democrat nation.
the term "molotov cocktail" was coined while fins were taking out soviet tanks with a bottle of gas and a pair of skis.

I see nothing and cannot read Russian. I gather a footlocker was found with a uniform and some liquor and cigars. Nice!
