About this ebook
It was March 18, 1944. Aimo Koivunen, the Finnish soldier was on patrol with his troop. The winter was at its peak and the squad was skiing through the snowy mountains. As Aimo was weary, he picked his drug bottle and took the pills. Since he was wearing mitts, and they were in a hurry to escape from the Red Army, he swallowed the entire set of Pervitin. He took 30 tablets and got overdosed where he was supposed to take one. The use of drugs in war is not a new thing. In the Second World War, the Germans employed methamphetamine to enhance their strength and capacity to resist in the battle. Speed was popular and available just like biscuits in the market. However, the meth-fuelled soldier loses his senses. Aimo and his troop escaped from their enemy army, but Aimo did not get back to his senses. He was hallucinating and delusions were affecting him. The team tried to get Aimo, but he was a threat to them as well. They feared that he might attack them. Finally, he was left alone in the woods. Aimo’s rest of the days in the forest was miserable. He could not distinguish the real and unreal things. He fought imaginary attacks and was injured from the mines. Without food and no ammunition, Aimo continued his skiing and finally stayed there as his left leg was severely injured. Finally, he caught the attention of a pilot circling above him and a team rescued him. The effect of the drug indeed helped him survive.
