Fall 2024 - Full of Action
21.09.2024
The 2024 season kicked off like a Russian ammo dump – with a blast! There will be combat operations on every Sunday until Christmas, and participation of close to 100 percent of active roster members is expected. Battles are being fought, and will continue to be, in both modern and Vietnam-era settings.
After careful consideration, the detachment has embraced the highly praised Arma 3 Creator DLC: Spearhead 1944. LDD Kyllikki does not tremble in front of big felines!
The detachment is always on the lookout for fresh recruits. The ability to carry heavy loads and perform under fire is a definite advantage.

Summer Meeting in Southern Savonia
16.06.2024
LDD Kyllikki held a summer meeting from June 6 to 9. The event started with a visit to the Infantry Museum in Mikkeli, after which the Detachment manoeuvred to an undisclosed location.
The 80th anniversary of the D-Day Normandy invasion was commemorated with an audio-visual spectacle that made the participants feel like they were actually taking part in the landings.
By a happy coincidence, the meeting was held quite near the Astuvansalmi rock paintings. In the spirit of D-Day, a masterful water crossing was conducted to visit the rock paintings.
The Finnish summer treated the Detachment fairly. As usual, the detachment enjoyed a long sauna, swam in the lake, ate well, gazed at the fire, enjoyed refreshments, and were amused by the continuous calls of a large number of cuckoos.
Broileri, Scottz, Kegetys, Kuokkanen, Ukka, Nouty, Arto, Pionjaer, Mammoth, Maako, and Altrix were awarded the Talkootyön Ansiomitali (TA) for their participation.
Mammoth was awarded the honorary title of Nuotiopäällikkö for attending 18 Detachment Meetings.

Finnish Defence Forces Flag Day
04.06.2024
In celebration of the Finnish Defence Forces Flag Day, a traditional platoon inspection was held on 2 June 2024.
After the inspection, a deep penetrating raid was conducted along a narrow river to the inner holdings of the enemy. After an eventful evening, the enemy suffered unbearable losses, while LDD Kyllikki was able to pull out in fighting order.
This event concluded the season, and members of the LDD Kyllikki will have some well-deserved rest and recuperation time. LDD Kyllikki will continue the everlasting fight later in September.
Yliv Haba was awarded Rovajärven risti (RR) for great endeavours and extraordinary service for the benefit of whole LDDK. Recruited to the Detachment in 2012, yliv Haba is one of the true cornerstones upon which LDDK has come to depend on in every level of its operation, from outstanding leadership to extremely high-quality mission production, thus showing way to future success in the best tradition of LDD Kyllikki.
Vänr Scottz was awarded Kyllikin 3. luokan taisteluristi (KTR 3. lk) for exceptional leadership in combat. A capable leader of a force of any size, vänr Scottz’s decisions are logical and tactically sound, which shows as repeated success in the battlefield especially when combined with great perseverance in carrying out any task he has been given.
Ylik Vultyr was awarded Rintamaloma (RL) for extraordinary action for LDDK. Ylik Vultyr planned and created a five-mission campaign "Siege of Kavala" (4 February to 3 March 2024), contributing in no small way to the combat readiness of the Detachment.

Liberation of Kavala
10.03.2024
In February, LDD Kyllikki undertook a campaign comprising five missions to liberate Kavala from Russian forces. The combat was primarily urban, resulting in a high casualty rate among the ranks.
The campaign was led by Commander Ukka, alongside other leaders and specialists in unconventional roles. We were delighted to welcome numerous players from outside the regular LDD Kyllikki roster to join the fight.
Throughout the campaign, LDD Kyllikki utilized several armored vehicles, including a T-80 main battle tank.
The enemy was predominantly composed of VDV troops, supported by aerial assets. Ultimately, the VDV were driven to the sea, and Kavala was liberated once again!
