Häyhä fought his cold-blooded one man’s war in the freezing cold, in destroyed trenches and chattered forests in the midst of the enemy attacks. His reputation was not left unnoticed abroad, where he also soon became a legend. Total of 542 enemy casualties in just three months time makes him still the leader of the all sniper statistics. The story of Simo Häyhä is written by Petri Sarjanen (M.A.), who became acquainted with this silent and modest man.
