Description

Virginia Hall chose an unconventional path for a woman of her time, navigating through the male-dominated diplomatic corps, serving as a war ambulance driver, becoming an amputee, and ultimately emerging as one of the key resistance leaders in France. Her contributions were vital to both Britain and the United States in securing victory during World War II.
