In this gripping episode of History Detective, join host Kelly Chase as she unravels the remarkable and often overlooked tale of Roza Shanina, a courageous Russian sniper who left an indelible mark on World War II. 🎯

Roza Shanina's journey began as a 17-year-old kindergarten teacher in the Russian city of Arkhangelsk, but her fate took an unexpected turn when she decided to join the military training program. Witness her transformation from a young girl seeking education to a skilled sniper, earning two Order of Glory medals and a Medal of Courage for her bravery in the face of danger.

However, behind the glossy propaganda photos and heroic portrayals lies a hidden truth about life for a woman in the male-dominated Red Army during WWII. Delve into the complexities of Roza's experiences on the front lines, where she grappled not only with the horrors of war but also the constant sexual advances and harassment from male soldiers.

Drawing insights from Roza's personal diary, which she kept despite its prohibition, we gain a unique perspective into the emotional toil faced by female soldiers during those turbulent times. 📖
