Did you know that during World War II, there were dozens of brave and fearless women who crossed into enemy lines, sabotaged Nazi equipment, and posed as double agents? The OSS (the Office of Strategic Services), had over 13,000 members, with 1/3 of them being women! In this one time class, we will take a brief look at some of the risks they took, acts of bravery that they accomplished, and what happened to them after the war was over. Some of the women that we will be discussing are Noor Inayat Khan, Nancy Wake, Odette Sansom, Krystyna Skarbek, Virginia Hall, and more!
