Editing Commando (section)

===Finland===
The Finns fielded the [[Erillinen Pataljoona 4]] and about 150 men were trained before the beginning of summer 1941. At first, the units had as few as 15 men, but during the war this was increased to 60. On July 1, 1943, the units were organised in the 4th Detached Battalion. In 1944, a special unit with amphibious [[He 115]] planes was founded to support the battalion. The total strength of the battalion was 678 men and 76 women (see [[Lotta Svärd]]).

In the [[Battle of Ilomantsi (1944)|Battle of Ilomantsi]], soldiers of the 4th disrupted the supply lines of the Soviet artillery, preventing effective fire support. The battalion made over 50 missions in 1943 and just under 100 in 1944, and was disbanded on November 30 of that same year.

[[Sissiosasto/5.D]] is another Finnish Commando unit of the World War Two era. The Detachment was founded on August 20, 1941, under the [[Lynx Division]] (5th Division, Finnish VI Corps). It was a self-contained unit for [[Long-range reconnaissance patrol|reconnaissance patrol]]ling, [[sabotage]] and [[guerrilla warfare]] operations behind enemy lines.
