They were instructed in Germany in Locksted (z.Z. Hochen-Locksted) Near Hamburg in Preussischen Königlichen 27. Jäger Bataillion. Arrived to Finland to our Civil war. Later a backbone of the intependent young Finnish army One companiy was Pioniers. Our Pioniers have as their memorial day the 27. July because the battle of Schmarden where they got their baptism of fire in east front in WW1. Many of jägers made a long career in the army and had an influence on army's development.

Metropolitan area of Helsinki. This stuff is purely warhistorical.Not against anybody. It is a song, Jägermarsch ,which only describes our past and becoming independed nation. The Tsar time was not bad, but then took place this revolution in Russia which led to civilwar in Finland. Sad and traumatic. We haven't solved the feelings even today. Although in Winterwar the nation was united and red and white finns fought together against invade a country. So take this as military music. Finnish military bands play it often in Hamina Tattoo.We have good relations with Russia today.
