Max Manus

[Dark Alley Dan]

Until I watched the movie last night, I'd never heard of Lt. Manus. This is a pretty comprehensive article on the gent:

I saw the movie on video, it's a few years old now. That guy definitely had some seriously large cajones!

Has there ever been a movie about Simo Häyhä? Häyhä has to be one of the most humble yet formidable snipers of WW2, if not ever. He never used a scope. Took out 500 Russians in a 100 day span during the winter war with his 28/30 finned mosin during the winter!! In my book, this guy is also a serious bad a$$ from WWII.
