FIN Arctic Warfare: "Inside the Most Prepared Country on Earth"

[The Bread Guy]

Worthwhile 52 minute watch - videographer follows a Finnish enemy force working against Finnish, U.S. and Canadian troops in an arctic warfare ex, as well as visiting the FIN-RUS border, chatting with government officials and everyday folks about the history of the place. Good reminders about building snow shelters to keep drone eyes away and how civil defence works, too.
