      Virginia was determined to return to France. SOE refused, as she was too well-known to the Gestapo. She was sent back to London. #OSS75

          I'm inspired by that piece of trivia. It makes me feel like I can still do something with my life.

          She taught French in Junior High, died in late 80's. Maybe not, this French teacher had a fake leg, but also other replaced body parts.
