The Paratroopers

Imshin recently wrote a very heartfelt and moving post on Hannah Senesz, one of the paratroopers sent into German-occupied territory in late WWII. I thought I might add some sources for those who are interested in further pursuing the subject: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 1)Tydor Baumel, Judith, "Parachuting to Their People", Yad Vashem Studies 25 (1996) 137-180 - a comprehensive overview of this historical chapter, unfortunately not online. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 2) Tydor Baumel, Judith, "Perfect Heroes (Hebrew)" about the paratroopers in Israeli collective memory. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 3) Haviva (Hebrew) - a bio of another, lesser known, female paratrooper. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 4) The Messenger - a bio of Enzo Sereni, paratrooper. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> That's All Folks, AIWAC
