Description
***DISCLAIMER***
Unfortunately there's no "proper" English translation of this song; I tried my best at translating it though.
Säkkijärven polkka is a Finnish folk song. It was
used in the Continuation War when the Finnish
army marched into Viipuri they found that the
Soviet's had left radio-controlled mines. This song
was played for ~1,500 times from September 1941
to February 1942 to jam these mines. Today the
song is one of the most famous Finnish folk songs.
