00:00The largest invasion in history is underway. For months, the Germans have waited,
00:06unsure where the blow would fall, and now their worst fears materialize.

00:18being waged in the shadows. In Berlin, weeks earlier, a woman's voice, calm and persuasive,
00:24had carried across the airwaves warning that this invasion would end in slaughter of the Allied

00:38of dying men. It painted a picture of mothers weeping and sweethearts betrayed, urging soldiers
00:45to question the cause for which they were about to die. It was propaganda carefully crafted to break

01:04Axis Sally, or *** of Berlin. Discover the full story on worldhistory.tv
