About Hasse Wind

Hans Henrik "Hasse" Wind was a Finnish fighter pilot and flying ace in World War II, with 75 confirmed air combat victories. His 75 confirmed kills make him the second most badassest fighter pilot in the Finnish Air Force, and in the World War II, Luftwaffe pilots excluded, the third deadliest fighter pilot. (The deadliest, badassest non-Luftwaffe pilot in the WW II was a Finn, Ilmari Juutilainen). Wind scored the Mannerheim Cross twice (1943, 1944).
