It was under direct control of the Army HQ. Tuomo Aho, whose grand-father served in the battalion, has since 1990 done research on the battalion's time in war 1941 - 1944. During the past 26 years he has interviewed heavy artillery battalion 1 veterans, collected and preserved a lot of material about the battalion. He is still collecting information on it and in the future there is a book coming about the battalion's war time. In addition to the research Tuomo, in 2011, came up with an idea to run a tribute re-enactment event of a heavy artillery battalion 1. He started to work on the idea, and after four years of through planning an event to demonstrate heavy artillery battalion 1 actions in war was organized and held in Kurikka. The first re-enactment event took place in Kurikka August 22nd. 2015. There were 65 men with war time gear, 2 ea. original Canon de 155 C mle 1917 Schneider howitzers, 2 ea. war time International Harvester McCormick T-6 crawlers, 5 ea war time cars, war time telephone, radio, measurement and fire calculation equipment. The interest in the heavy artillery re-enactment event was huge and exceeded all expectations. Tuomo had estimated around 1 500 - 2 000 people to come and watch the show, but it was more than 4 500 people from Kurikka and the surrounding municipalities in the event. It was such great event that the artillery re-enactment activity was decided to continue. The next goal is to have a double size event to celebrate Finland's 100 years Independence on June 28th, 2017. This is the very first time when such a big artillery re-enactment event takes place in Finland. The Suomi 100 (Finland 100 Years) event consists of: - around 100-125 men with war time gear - 4 ea. 100 years old Canon de 155 C mle 1917 Schneider howitzers (3,3 t) renovated back to wooden wheels! - 3-4 ea. war time International Harvester McCormick T-6 crawlers - 1 ea. war time Packard passenger car - 10+ war time trucks: Including Citroën T-45, Ford BB 51-157, Chevrolet Master/4040 and International KB-6. - War time artillery measuring, telephone, radio, fire calculation and fire observation gear. Panssaridivisioona 75 vuotta -tapahtuma on osa Hattulan kunnan ja Panssariprikaatin Suomi 100 -juhlallisuuksia Panssariprikaatissa Parolannummella 28.6.2017. Tapahtumassa on mukana myös kokonaisturvallisuuden juhlahanke NUKU RAUHASSA. Panssariprikaati juhlii perinteisesti vuosipäiväänsä 28.6. Kyseisenä päivänä Äänislinnassa vuonna 1942 perustettiin Panssaridivisioona, jolla oli ratkaiseva rooli kesän 1944 torjuntataistelussa nykyaikaisimpana ja iskukykyisimpänä joukkonamme. Tästä joukosta sai alkunsa nykyinen Panssariprikaati. The Finnish Supreme headquarters ordered the foundation of an armoured division on 28 June 1942 and the actual foundation was on 30 June 1942. The division consisted of the newly formed Armoured Brigade and the old (1st) Jaeger Brigade. The Cavalry Brigade was also part of the division until January 1943. The division artillery consisted of the 14th Heavy Artillery Battalion. The division commander was Major General Ruben Lagus. During most of the war, the division was located at Petrozavodsk, but in the spring of 1944 it was moved to the Karelian Isthmus to form the reserve of the headquarters.
