Lyudmila Pavlichenko, the deadliest female sniper in History
Lyudmila Pavlichenko, the deadliest female sniper in History
When her beloved college of history was bombed by the Germans, this woman began a dark path that would see her become history's deadliest female sniper -- and one of Eleanor Roosevelt's best friends.
- Eleanor Roosevelt: And how many men have you killed?
- Lyudmila Pavlichenko: Not men, fascists. Three hundred nine.
So cool Woody Guthrie wrote a song about her
Miss Pavlichenko, well known to fame
Russia's your country, fightin's your game
The world will always love you for all time to come
Three hundred Nazis felled by your gun
This was excellent!
Amazing story and amazing art! Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic story!
Kind of surprised there is no Sabaton song about her
When looking at the letters that Ludmila and Eleanor wrote to each other, it's pretty clear they were also lovers. What an incredible power couple.
