A quick search led me to these two war time photos.
First pic is from the US Life magazine ( i had no idea Life was interested in our far-away war). The photo is taken in our winter war, soon after the battle of road to Raate. i have no idea about the second either, just two sergeants smoking a pipe. The one on the left (sgt major, four arrows) has German-style Finnish helmet and the the other (3 arrows) has a Russian helmet (spoils of war?). I have no idea. I have some of hat cockades, taken by my grandfather and my great uncle. I think they are just a memorials of the sad times.

Here's a few b+w photos from my collection. It's a mix of digital and b+w film.

Well the first one seems to be wearing some kind of baseball cap, so I don't blame the other guys grabbing something with a tad more substance to put on their heads. That's why they're sergeants...
