Default TW2000 Finnish Books

Has anyone out there actually got these 1st edition books or know where to find them translated to English and saved as a .pdf

The 2 books in question are :

Erikoisjoukot (About Special Forces)

&

Kööpenhaminaan (Trying to get home but end up in Finland)

Yes I know they are rare as hell. And yes I where I can buy them, but they are $80 each

Just thought I would ask

Thank you

As far as I know, there has never been any official English translation of the Finnish books and not even any unofficial translations of the entire books.
However, there have been members here who did translations of parts of the books and they can be found here but I don't know the specific threads off the top of my head.
In theory, searching for "Finnish" should locate those threads for you.

EDIT, the first: I think these three are probably the most relevant

I have a very bad English translation of Erikoisjoukot (About Special Forces) - actually thinking about possibly trying to clean it up so it reads better

On a kinda related note, were you able to get that Spanish article translated? I'd definitely be interested in seeing an English version
