The young Häyuhya voluntarily underwent training in the Finnish analog of our "White Guard", in Suojeluskunta or the Civil Guard.

Was considered the best rifle detachment. "He was an experienced shooter. At the competitions I took the first place, hitting six times a minute in the same tiny goal, located at a distance of 150 meters, "- says the book" Finland is at war: the Winter War of 1939-40 "by the authors of three Finnish historians (see footnote) .

In 1925-1927 he served an ICE in a scooter battalion, received the rank of corporal and passed examinations for a sniper.

He worked for a citizen on a parental farm and did not stand out.

Симо Хяюхя родился в многодетной семье в 1905 году в селении Раутъярви, у самой русской границы. Сейчас это село входит в состав РФ.

С детства мальчик увлекался лыжами, стрельбой и охотой, много крестьянствовал на ферме родителей.

Юношей Хяюхя добровольно прошел подготовку в финском аналоге нашей «Белой гвардии», в Suojeluskunta или Гражданской гвардии.

Считался лучшим стрелком отряда. «Он был опытным стрелком. На соревнованиях занял первое место, попав шесть раз в течение минуты в одну и ту же крошечную цель, расположенную на расстоянии 150 метров», — рассказывается в книге «Финляндия воюет: Зимняя война 1939-40» авторства трех финских историков (см. сноску).

В 1925-1927 годах отслужил ДВС в самокатном батальоне, получил звание ефрейтора и сдал экзамены на снайпера.

На гражданке работал на родительской ферме и ничем не выделялся.

В возрасте всего 20 лет и при своем росте в 1,52 метра он прошел обязательную военную службу.
