Today’s Jewish Birthday: Hannah Szenes

Courtesy of Wikipedia Hannah Szenes ( July 17, 1921 – November 7, 1944) was a Hungarian Jewish poet and a Special Operations Executive (SOE) member. She was one of 37 Jewish SOE recruits from Mandate Palestine parachuted by the British into Yugoslavia during the Second World War to assist anti-Nazi forces and ultimately in the rescue of Hungarian Jews about to be deported to the German death camp at Auschwitz.
