Noor Inayat Khan was a Sorbonne educated musician, author of fairy tales, and a daring spy who died fighting the Nazis. In November of 1940 she joined Britains Womens Auxiliary Air Force and was recruited as a spy to support the French Underground. She was ultimately betrayed by a French collaborator and interrogated for months by the Gestapo. She never gave up any information, not even her real name, and organized two breakouts from Gestapo headquarters. For this and the damage she did to the Nazis war efforts, she was executed in Dachau.
