This shows me that Freddie Oversteegen and her sister Truus Oversteegen improved their skills in being armed assassins in a short time period. This is impressive because they joined at a young age and learned skills like professionals. elizabethgaldame711 https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131225471 2022-04-05 18:12:55 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131225471 elizabethgaldame711 https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131244695 Image of Hannie Schaft when she was young.]]> 2022-04-05 18:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131244695 The reason i chose the Oversteegen sisters was because they had the courage to join the Dutch Resistance to protect and do their part in protecting their home town. And the fact they were very young when they did all of that is impressive. This also shows me they were two brave and strong young women. elizabethgaldame711 https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131271688 2022-04-05 18:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131271688 The resistance of the Oversteegen sisters is they made a trio with Hannie Schaft together they, ambushed and killed German Nazis and their Dutch collaborators.

Together, the three young women formed a sabotage and assassination cell. Hannie became their best friend, and the sisters were devastated when Nazis arrested and killed her in 1945, just three weeks before the war ended in Europe. elizabethgaldame711 https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131407043 2022-04-05 20:14:09 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethgaldame711/mp9ot3snfw5o7dwq/wish/2131407043 Who: Oversteegen sisters What: They were both able to kill the Nazis with a explosive chocolate bar.
