In June 1941, when Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa, Lyudmila Pavlichenko left her university studies and ignored the offer of a position as a nurse to become one of Soviet Russia's 2,000 female snipers. Less than a year later, she had 309 recorded kills, including 29 enemy sniper kills. She was withdrawn from active duty after being injured. She was also regarded as a key heroic figure for the war effort.

Absolutely stunning read, it is heroic as it is tragic. There really was nothing like the Eastern Front it was a completely different monster than what the western allies had to deal with. This book dispels a ton of myths surrounding her life, her training, how she enlisted, where she enlisted. Furthermore what sets this memoir apart from so many others is the fact that she is a military-historian and is able to draw insight from her own post- war research which makes her memoirs an absolutely fascinating, well- researched, and well written read. It's super refreshing seeing such an excellent source finally translated into English.
