* TheWoobie: Private Riitaoja, who is terrified, incompetent and relentlessly bullied by Corporal Lehto. He's also kind and good willing like a child. His [[spoiler:last]] words are characteristically ''"Please... please don't... I didn't mean anything bad."''

* WriteWhoYouKnow: Many if not most of the characters are inspired by or composites of the actual people Linna knew during the war. Two of them - Rokka and Koskela - were meant to be [[CaptainErsatz direct literary counterparts]] of two men he knew there; Viljam Pylkäs and Einari Kokkonen, respectively.
