MISSION IMPOSSIBLE (Ctd)
LtGen Erik Heinrichs was CO of 3rd Army Corps and succeded LtGen Österman as CO of the Karelian Army. Like the other Finnish Generals he was a scholar and trained in Prussian 27th Rifle Bn during WW 1.
But his mission was still impossible. Photo: LtGen Heinrichs (left) with COS 3rd Army Corps Col G. Ehrnrooth. General of Infantry Erik Heinrichs was awarded Mannerheim Cross 2nd class nr 48 on 5th Feb 1942 and 1st class nr 2 on 31st Dec 1944 (Only two 1st class ever issued).
