The Mother Who Became a Spy and Was Executed at 23 | Violette Szabo WW2

23 years old. Mother of 3-year-old. Widow. British spy parachuting into Nazi France when ambushed by Germans. Fights back with machine gun, kills multiple Germans, captured. Tortured 7 months, refuses to talk. Transferred to Ravensbrück. January 26, 1945—three months before war ends—Violette Szabo executed by firing squad age 23. Daughter Tania orphaned. Britain awards George Cross posthumously. She wasn't supposed to be spy—supposed to be young mother in London. But when husband Etienne killed North Africa October 1942, Violette decided safety wasn't enough. Volunteered for most dangerous job: SOE agent behind enemy lines. Completed two missions. First successful. Second—captured and killed. ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 00:00 - 23 Years Old, Executed 01:42 - Violette Paris 1921 03:55 - London 1932 Bilingual 06:20 - Meets Etienne 1940 08:35 - Married, Daughter Tania 10:50 - Husband Killed 1942 13:05 - Volunteers SOE 1943 15:20 - Training Weapons Combat 17:35 - First Mission April 1944 19:50 - Second Mission June 1944 22:05 - Ambushed June 10 Fights 24:20 - Captured Tortured 7 Months 26:35 - Ravensbrück Camp 28:50 - Executed January 26 1945 30:15 - George Cross Daughter 31:40 - What Will You Choose? 🎖️ THE FACTS: • Born: June 26, 1921, Paris • Parents: British father, French mother (bilingual) • Met Etienne: July 14, 1940 (Bastille Day) • Married: August 21, 1940 (6 weeks later) • Daughter Tania: Born June 8, 1942 • Husband killed: October 24, 1942, El Alamein • Widow: Age 21 • SOE: Volunteered Spring 1943 • First mission: April 1944 (successful) • Second mission: June 7, 1944 (D-Day+1) • Captured: June 10, 1944 (ambush) • Tortured: 7 months (never talked) • Executed: January 26, 1945, age 23 • George Cross: December 1946 (posthumous) • Film: "Carve Her Name With Pride" 1958 💔 WIDOW TO WARRIOR: Violette 21 when Etienne killed.
