STORY DETAILS
Synopsis: Marie acts as bait in a tree to kill a tank, but the Resistance's ammo is running low, and no money to buy more supplies. Meanwhile Allied bombers can't bomb a gorge to kill a Nazi train. And the Nazis offer a million franc reward for Marie's capture! She volunteers and is turned in. Her comrade safeguards the money from being stolen back by Nazis as she escapes. Finally, re-supplied with ammo and ordnance, Marie's squad parachutes with explosives down into the gorge and destroys the train, a "human air raid".
