From @joannechocolat
C (1914 – 1944) was a British agent in France in the Second World War who served in the Special Operations Executive.
She became the first female #wireless operator to be sent from the UK into occupied France to aid the French #Resistance during #WW2.
From the BBC history archives:
She was born in Moscow to an Indian father & American mother and was a direct descendant of Tipu Sultan, the 18th century Muslim ruler of Mysore. Khan's father was a musician and Sufi teacher who moved his family first to London, then to Paris, where Khan was educated and later worked writing childrens' stories.
She escaped to England after the fall of France. In November 1940, she joined the WAAF (Women's Auxiliary Air Force) and in late 1942, she was recruited to join SOE as a radio operator.
Sounds like quite the life!
