I never actually measured the scale. But you might be right, indeed.

No, I was actually referring to the Rumanians' belief back then that, accoring to the original German plans, Finland would have joined 'the anti-Bolshevik crusade' alongside Germany and Rumania. Of course, now we know that it did not happen on 22 June 1941.
