	The Union's Last War: The Russian-Swedish war of 1808-09
		During the battle of Svensksund (In English it is called Rochensalm) 1790, he had been a staff officer under Gustav III and were one of the men behind the victory.
		The battle was fought on the fields and in the woods just south of the village of Oravais and the Swedish line of defence stretched along the slight heightening in the landscape that ran alongside the rather insignificant river of Fjällån.
		A fierce and bloody battle followed, in which the Russian commander of the invasion army in Finland, Buxhoewden, was nearly captured by Swedish troops that had been put ashore near his command post.

		The battle was fought at Svensksund, and turned into a humiliating defeat, the Russians losing 53 ships, 643 cannon and 14,000 men, and the imperial flag of state; twenty-six of these ships were entered in the Swedish navy.
		The troops were deprived of their hopes of a battle and forced to make a retreat of nearly 600 miles, suffering from cold and hunger.
		In the summer of 1808, her army fought several glorious battles under the command of Adlercreutz, Dbeln and Sandels, but in the autumn it was attacked by a superior Russian force and was nearly closed in between Old Carleby and Vasa.

	The Historical Society of Oravais
		By the division of the Finnish army executed on May 7th,1808, the Ostrobothnian Regiment was divided between the 2nd and the 5th brigade.
		The division was executed so that the companies from the northern districts of Ostobothnia were joined to the 5th brigade and fought in command of Sandels at Pulkkila, Kuopio, Toivala and the bridge of Virta.
		Because of the battle methods of that time, where the soldiers marched lined towards the enemy and fired by order of the officer, a lot of soldiers died in the field.
