Hi all!

I'm working on a dio involving a Dragon 1/16th scale Viking Division Trooper. So far, I know they were made up of Finnish "volunteers" and that they fought on the eastern front. I also know they were in Hungary in 1945.

Does anyone know of good resources for info on this division?

Thanks a ton and a half!

Gives these a shot:

In seaching the web for this division you may get more hits using "Wiking Division," the German spelling.

Good luck, HTH
