Lucie Jeanne played Renee Lemaire, “The Angel of Bastogne” in BoB. She was killed in a night air raid on Dec 25, 1944.

Rebecca Okot played Anna the Nurse,in real life Augusta Chiwy.

The real story here is why it took so long to find and recognise Augusta Chiwy for her valor.

Let’s not confuse history here through the inabilty to do the basic reseatch before posting.

” I think so..” I heard..” “IIRC..” “Someone said..” “Those people in _____”, etc. etc..
