Too bad kids aren't hearing and reading about people like this instead of degenerates like Amy Winehouse
RIP and thanks for all you did

She stares into the camera with a coquettish half-smile and an unflinching come-hither look. The eyebrows are plucked, the lips full, the long auburn hair a classic 1940s style, falling onto the shoulders of her khaki uniform.
She could easily have been one of the sassy songbirds who brightened up World War II. But this was the face of Nancy Wake, one of that conflict’s bravest underground fighters against the Germans in France — and certainly the most stylish.
A male comrade-in-arms in the French Resistance summed her up as: 'The most feminine woman I know, until the fighting starts. And then she is like five men.’ She lived up to both parts of that compliment.
