Father Noko was in Finnish Calvary in 1930s. In 1942 the horses were deposed and replaced with bicycles. However everything else remained the same, they still had red pants, spurs and swords, --clerical error in headquarters, perhaps. Sables were very particular, inherited from Russian Hussars, but almost impossible to transport on a bicycle. So they were lost in alarming rate and never replaced. So bicycles were never used in Hussar-style cavalry attack with swords ablazing. This was the only thing Vilho Noko ever missed and regretted from WWII.
