520    "When Hitler invaded Poland on September 1, 1939, Virginia
       Hall was traveling in Europe. Which was dangerous enough, 
       but as fighting erupted across the continent, instead of 
       returning home, she headed to France. In a country divided
       between freedom and fascism, Virginia was determined to do
       her part for the Allies. An ordinary woman from Baltimore,
       Maryland, she dove into the action, first joining a French
       ambulance unit and later becoming an undercover agent for 
       both the British Special Operations Executive and the US 
       Office of Strategic Services. Working as a spy in the 
       intelligence network, she made her way to Vichy, 
       coordinating Resistance movements, assisting in the 
       sabotage of Nazis, and rescuing downed Allied soldiers. 
       She passed in plain sight of the enemy, and soon found 
       herself being hunted by the Gestapo. But Virginia cleverly
       evaded discovery and death, often through bold feats and 
       daring escapes. Her covert operations, efforts with the 
       Resistance, and risky work as a wireless telegraph 
       operator greatly contributed to the Allies' eventual win"-
