Surika Braverman was born in Romania
But
immigrated to Palestine in 1938
And was a member
of Kibbutz Shamir
She was one of the
first female fighters
To serve in
the Palmach striking force
She was one of
thirty-seven
Palestinian
Jewish parachutists
Sent on missions
in Nazi-occupied Europe
For
the Special Operations Executive
She was honoured
with lighting a torch
On Israel's 62nd independence day in 2010
