On this episode of the Pen and Sword podcast from Stratfor, a RANE company, we hear the story of a heroine of World War Two - a story of bravery, intelligence and a remarkable resilience. The story is that of Florence Finch, a young war widow whose cunning subversion of Japanese rations during the WWII occupation of the Philippines garnered the highest medal any civilian can receive, and saved the lives of hundreds of POWs. The author of her story is Robert J. Mrazek. Subscribe to Stratfor Worldview to read about the current geopolitics of the Philippines.
