Soviet Deadly Damsels: Lady Death and Her Sisters (Best Snipers Series Book 6)
During the Second World War, which the Soviet Union calls the Great Patriotic War, 2000 Soviet women were trained as snipers. Of those 2,000 only 800 lived to see the end of the war. Few of these women ever wrote their memoirs as snipers. But some kept revealing notes on their experiences and careful records of their surprisingly large number of confirmed kills. As soon as peacetime began the Soviet Union expected women to resume their usual childbearing and wifely duties. But what those women did during their Patriotic War will always be remembered. Here are a few of the top Soviet women snipers who gave all they had to turn the tides of war. What these young women sacrificed and achieved for their Motherland will always be celebrated in the annals of heroism. This author and this book about real people and true events salute these outstanding women for their remarkable bravery, valor and sacrifice at a time when their Motherland needed them the most.
(Readers Note: Due to the large number of outstanding women snipers who were hardly out of their teens when they went to war, this illustrated e-book about the best of them is over four times larger than the average short-story e-book about one or two snipers and their missions by this author.)
