Re: Finnish Brewsters
I do not never write this way about FAF as Axis Air Forces.
The political and military realtions between Finland and III Reich were not so tight to be called as Axis's ally.
Both, they had common enemy, Stalin and Soviet Russia, but the reasons, which they fought thier wars were total different. First and second war Finland was under Soviet attack and had defend their independence. Soviet Russia was twice an agressor. Continuation War had began after suden, preemptive Soviet air attack on 25.06.41
Second Finland was democratics states, all Axis's states were more or less dictatorships, or even a few were total's states (Italy, Croat, Slovak, Spain, Romania, Hungary). This is second distinction of not being Axis's ally.
And last but not least, all Axis's states had deliberatly participated in Holocaust. I do not hear this about Finland.
