Beaten only by time.A fate that none of us will escape, sadly.
The article states that she drank six gins a day until a heart attack forced her to "cut back" - she was already 90 at the time! Now that's my kind of woman! This was a great article and yet another bookmark for my WW2 folder.

Quite a woman! Her first husband, too, was a very brave man, to suffer torture and death rather than betray her.

Rest in peace Nancy Wake. Hero.

There's an Australian film from the 1980s called Nancy Wake and Charlotte Grey, though fiction, was partly based on her (Grey was a composite character based on a number of female SOE agents).
