Another incredible agent in WWII was Virginia Hall, aka the limping lady, who managed some pretty incredible feats, escapes, and rescues and did so with only one leg.

For a (hopefully entertaining) rundown of her exploits, you can watch this 22m video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRdGS5ia2OQ

Also the book “a woman of no importance” on her story is excellent reading.

I wish Hollywood used these amazing women's stories to give us great movies instead of gender swapping male stories.

There's plenty of people who would love to watch.

The Russian sniper women still don’t have a good Hollywood movie about them. Russian government would be upset for bringing it up but the female snipers often worked in pairs and you can totally find some truthful bits of lesbianism to include…

But instead of looking to really history that actually happened, we get the BF5 trailer fake history nonsense
