Asskicking Women in History

I have seen the pic of the gun-toting nuns online, usually in terms of 72 virgins and the shock jihadis will get, but I never knew the actual story behind it.

I prefer Lyudmila Pavlichenko . One of 2000 woman snipers in the Russian army in WW-2. "Mila" managed to kill 187 Nazis in her first 60 DAYS in combat! They Moved her to a "Hot zone" after giving her a decoration and a shinny new rifle. She killed 275 more Nazis over the next 8 months! She ended her war with 309 confirmed kills-36 of them Nazi snipers. What makes this really remarkable is that in the Russian army you only get credit for a kill if you recover "proof" like dog tags ,Pay books, and if possible weapons. She herself said in an interview that she knew she had killed many more Nazis- she just couldn't recover the "proof"---Ray
