In August 1940, the Republic of Estonia was officially annexed by the Soviet Union. During the following year, thousands of Estonians were arrested, executed, or sent to the Soviet <a href="/wiki/GULAG" class="mw-redirect" title="GULAG">concentration camp system</a> in <a href="/wiki/Russia" title="Russia">Russia</a>. After war broke out between the Soviet Union and Germany on June 22, 1941, the Soviet authorities in occupied Estonia, in violation of the <a href="/wiki/International_law" title="International law">international law</a>, coerced about 30,000 Estonians into service in the retreating <a href="/wiki/Red_Army" title="Red Army">Red Army</a>. Although initially the Germans were perceived as liberators by most Estonians, it was soon realized that they were but another occupying power. However, with the Soviet atrocities fresh in mind, during the early stages of German occupation many young Estonian men volunteered for the Estonian units within the German Army to fight against the Soviet Union. In 1944, Estonia, along with Latvia, became one of only two non-German speaking countries occupied by Germany where a general conscription-mobilization was carried out by the occupational authorities. </p><p>Against this background, joining the armed forces of <a href="/wiki/Finland" title="Finland">Finland</a>, a kindred nation, appeared a reasonable alternative for those who wished to fight for the freedom of Estonia and against the advancing Red Army, but who for ideological reasons or historical grievances were unwilling to do it in the German uniform.

It was a dangerous journey to make, as the gulf was ablaze with war and ravaged by storms, and the German authorities did not allow Estonians to cross over to Finland, which also put the Finnish authorities in an awkward position. The first batch of volunteers formed the third battalion of Infantry Regiment 47. In the autumn of the same year, when the German authorities called into service those born in 1925, more volunteers arrived from Estonia. The volunteers made their way over the Gulf independently, or with the help of the "hawks" (<a href="/wiki/Finnish_language" title="Finnish language">Finnish</a>: <i lang="fi">haukat</i>). The Hawks were Estonian volunteers working for the S-office <sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="margin-left:0.1em; white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Please_clarify" title="Wikipedia:Please clarify"><span title="Finnish name at least (February 2024)">clarification needed</span></a></i>]</sup> which was part of the secret service of the Finnish headquarters.

The regiment consisted of two four-company infantry battalions (Companies 1–8), the 13th Mortar Company and the 14th Anti-Tank Company. On May 4, 1944, there were 1,973 Estonians and 361 Finns in Infantry Regiment 200, including 67 officers and 165 non-commissioned officers.

The war in Finland was nearly over, and the men of Infantry Regiment 200 wished to return to Estonia and continue their fight. The regiment had been withdrawn from the front and had been following the developments south of the water anxiously. On August 1, 1944, it was broadcast over the <a href="/wiki/Yleisradio" class="mw-redirect" title="Yleisradio">Yleisradio</a> that the Finnish government and <a href="/wiki/Risto_Ryti" title="Risto Ryti">President Ryti</a> were to resign.

On the following day, the Finnish government received a letter from the Estonians. It had been signed in the name of "all national organisations of Estonia" by Captain Karl Talpak, minister Aleksander Warma and several others. In the letter, the Finnish government was asked to send the Estonian volunteer regiment back to Estonia fully equipped. </p><p>It was then announced that JR 200 would be disbanded and that the volunteers were free to return home. An agreement had been reached with the Germans, and the Estonians were promised amnesty if they were to return. The men wanted to return armed and as a unit, but if their wishes would be followed was another question. The uncertainty of situation made the decision difficult, but 9 out of 10 decided to return. As soon as they landed, the regiment was sent to perform a counter-attack against the Soviet 3rd Baltic Front, which had managed a break-through at the <a href="/wiki/Tartu_Offensive" class="mw-redirect" title="Tartu Offensive">Tartu front</a> and was threatening the capital <a href="/wiki/Tallinn" title="Tallinn">Tallinn</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Notable_'Finnish_boys'"><span id="Notable_.27Finnish_boys.27"></span>Notable 'Finnish boys'</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Finnish_Infantry_Regiment_200&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Notable 'Finnish boys'"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Ivar_Gr%C3%BCnthal" title="Ivar Grünthal">Ivar Grünthal</a> (1924–1996), Estonian writer</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ilmar_Jaks" title="Ilmar Jaks">Ilmar Jaks</a> (1923–2019), Estonian writer</li> <li><a href="/wiki/%C3%9Clo_J%C3%B5gi" title="Ülo Jõgi">Ülo Jõgi</a> (1921–2007), Estonian soldier and war historian</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ottniell_J%C3%BCrissaar" title="Ottniell Jürissaar">Ottniell Jürissaar</a> (1924–2014), an Estonian poet and conductor</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ain_Kaalep" title="Ain Kaalep">Ain Kaalep</a> (1926–2020), Estonian poet, playwright, literary critic, and translator</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Raimond_Kaugver" title="Raimond Kaugver">Raimond Kaugver</a> (1926–1992), Estonian writer</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Henn-Ants_Kurg" title="Henn-Ants Kurg">Henn-Ants Kurg</a> (1898–1943), Estonian military colonel and diplomat</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Juhan_Ross" title="Juhan Ross">Juhan Ross</a> (1925–2002), Estonian atmospheric physicist</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Endel_Ruberg" title="Endel Ruberg">Endel Ruberg</a> (1917–1989), Estonian artist, naturalist, and humanitarian</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Vello_Salo" title="Vello Salo">Vello Salo</a> (1925–2019), Estonian Catholic cleric, essayist, and translator</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ilmar_Talve" title="Ilmar Talve">Ilmar Talve</a> (1919–2007), Estonian writer and ethnologist</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Arved_Viirlaid" title="Arved Viirlaid">Arved Viirlaid</a> (1922–2015), Estonian writer</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Finnish_Infantry_Regiment_200&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite id="CITEREFJowettBrent_SnodgrassRaffaele_Ruggeri2006" class="citation book cs1">Jowett, Philip;
