Hans Kalm
Hans Kalm, born 21 April 1889, died 1 February 1981, was an Estonian born soldier and doctor who served in the armies of Russian Empire, Finland and Estonia.
== World War I and Finnish Civil War ==
Kalm was born to a farmer's family in the village of Kotsama in Viljandi County. His last name is connected with the old Finno-Ugric word "kalma", meaning "death". According to a family legend, one of Kalm's forefathers survived the Black Death by hiding in a remote cemetery island and therefore changed his name. Kalm was recruited by the Imperial Russian Army in 1914 and fought in the World War I in Gulf of Riga. After the 1917 Russian Revolution he fled to Finland and joined the White Guards. In the 1918 Finnish Civil War he led a battalion mostly composed of the students of two park ranger colleges from Ähtäri and Evo.〔Heinämäki, Jaakko: ″Hans Kalm: vapaussoturi ja vaihtoehtolääkäri″, p. 11–13.

Kalm's battalion became known in March as they attacked on a Red Guard sanatorium in the village of Harmoinen in Kuhmoinen municipality, killing 11 wounded soldiers and two nurses.〔(Kalm, Hans (1889 - 1981) ) (in Finnish). Finnish National Biography. Retrieved 10 July 2015.〕 After the war, his battalion was in charge of the Hennala prison camp in Lahti. In a short period in May, more than 500 Red prisoners were executed, including some 200 female fighters.〔Tepora, Tuomas: ″The Finnish Civil War 1918: History, Memory, Legacy″, p. 110.

It is most likely, that Kalm himself shot the Red leader Ali Aaltonen.〔Korjus, Olli: ″Kuusi kuolemaantuomittua″, Atena Kustannus, 2014. ISBN 978-952-30002-4-7. (Google Books (in Finnish) )〕
