Wow.. thats the kind of temperatures they were really exposed to on the eastern front. We are all very comfortable in the luxuary of having a shower after a tough and cold event but think that they had to endure those temperatures AND the the constant fear of death. Thanks for sharing and im looking forward to more pictures

Yeah, I was freezing my balls outside and running from my car to the tents and what do I see - you guys chilling out eating food and enjoying the weather. Made me feel less like a Finn and a man

Well, the sun was shining and the temperature has raised probably to -20 so quite warmth, we were alive, we had hot soup, we have received our rations of chocolate and knackebrot and most important of all, we have consumed at once all our ration of THIS!!!
