By 1943, Nancy Wake, who had left Australia in her 20s, was number one on the Gestapo's most wanted list. She led a raid on Gestapo Headquarters in Montucon, killed a sentry with her bare hands and shot her way through road blocks. Her husband was executed by the Gestapo because he wouldn't reveal her whereabouts. This is her story.
