    Several books have been written about Simo Hayha. Anyone read any of them and have recommendations? I have read most of whats online about him, his life story is very intriguing.

    I think it was Simo who had a portion of his face blown off and was still fighting. They forced him to retire from the field and he became an instructor IIRC.
