All they had was a map, a compass, rulers, stopwatches, flashlights and pencils, yet they successfully completed 30,000 bombing raids and dropped more than 23,000 tons of munitions on advancing German armies during World War II. 3 The all-female Night Witches squadron was the result of women in the Soviet Union wanting to be actively involved in the war effort.

  • Nadezhda Popova - Telegraph 21/07/13 18:50
    Nadezhda Popova - Telegraph 21/07/13 18:50 Nadezhda Popova Nadezhda Popova, who has died aged 91, was a member of an elite corps of Soviet women — known as the “Night Witches” — who fought as bomber pilots in the air war against Germany, and the only one to win three Orders of the Patriotic War for bravery. Nadezhda Popova (standing) with some of her fellow 'Night Witches' Photo: NOVOSTI/TOPFOTO 5:21PM BST 10 Jul 2013 Unlike Soviet men, women were not formally conscripted into the armed forces. They were volunteers. But the haemorrhaging of the Red Army after the routs of 1941 saw mass campaigns to induct women into the military. They were to play an essential role. More than 8,000 women fought in the charnel house of Stalingrad. In late 1941 Stalin signed an order to establish three all-women Air Force units to be grouped into separate fighter, dive bomber and night bomber regiments. Over the next four years these regiments flew a combined total of more than 30,000 combat sorties and dropped 23,000 tons of bombs. Nadezhda Popova, then aged 19, was one of the first to join the best-known of the three units, the 588th Night Bomber Regiment (later renamed the 46th Taman Guards Night Bomber Aviation Regiment). http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/10171897/Nadezhda-Popova.html Page 1 sur 4 Nadezhda Popova - Telegraph 21/07/13 18:50 The 588th was not well equipped. Wearing hand-me-down uniforms from male pilots, the women flew 1920s-vintage Polikarpov PO-2 two-seater biplanes, which consisted of fabric strung over a plywood frame, and lacked all but the most rudimentary instruments.

  • The Wickedest Flying Witches
    THE WICKEDEST FLYING WITCHES Calling a female pilot a ‘flying witch’ in avant-garde America could bring condemnation, censorship, and protesters trampling down the weeds in my front yard. So, stick with me on this: The flying ‘Night Witches’ of WWII gained their nickname from an adversary, out of respect for their boldness and deadly sneak attacks. Moral of the story: never sell a female pilot short. The conduit to ‘flying witches’ most likely began with Katherine Wright, sister of the Wright brothers. Katherine not only flew with her brothers but contributed as much vigor and knowledge to the first flight at Kitty Hawk as did her famous KATHERINE WRIGHT brothers. Harriet Quimby was the first woman in America to become a licensed pilot. Nice start, but it would take the U.S. military 65 years to accept female pilots plus another 17 years before the ladies were allowed inside the cockpits of combat aircraft. HARRIET Chopper pilot Major Marie Rossi was the first American female pilot to lose her life in a combat role on March 1, 1991 near her home base in northern Saudi Arabia. She was 32 years old. Ranked as the top female Air Force pilot in the 1990’s, Lt. Col. Martha MAJOR ROSSI McSally was the first woman to fly a fighter aircraft on combat sorties. She also flew over 100 combat hours in an A-10 Warthog over Iraq in the mid-90s. The U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds performance team recruited Major Nicole Malachowski as their first female demonstration pilot in 2006.

  • Sanskar School Home Assignment Class – Vii Subject – English
    SANSKAR SCHOOL HOME ASSIGNMENT CLASS – VII SUBJECT – ENGLISH https://youtu.be/yXmHwGGoJH0 NIGHT WITCHES KEY TERMS a. flimsiness - weakness and thickness b. manoeuvre -move or turn in a skilful and controlled manner c. decorated -honoured formally, often with a medal or badge d. legacy-something valuable that is passed down generations and belongs to everyone. e. sorties - quick attacks made by an aircraft or a group of aircraft. f. brothers in arms - soldiers fighting on the same side. UNDERSTANDING THE TEXT A. Answer these questions :- 1.What were the disadvantages of the type of aircraft used by the female fighter pilots? What was the disadvantage Ans. The aircraft used by the female fighter pilots were built mainly of plywood and canvas. They were small and usually reserved for training and crop-dusting. These planes, if hit by bullets, could burst into flames. One plane could carry only two bombs at a time. A strong wind could toss the plane about. However, the advantage of these small and flimsy planes was that they could be manoeuvred quickly and easily 2.Nobody could understand why the brave lad who had taken on a Nazi squadron wouldn't drink vodka. What mistake were the people in this situation making? What does this say about female fighter pilots - were they a common or an uncommon figure at that time? Ans.The people in this situation were making the mistake of thinking that the brave pilot must have been a man—a brave lad. This shows that the female fighter pilots were an uncommon figure at that time—the people did not immediately think that the pilot might be a woman.

  • Teaching Guide for Teaching the Historical Fiction Book, Among the Red Stars by Gwen C
    Teaching Guide for teaching the historical fiction book, Among the Red Stars by Gwen C. Katz (Harper Teen: 2017) World War Two has shattered Valka's homeland of Russia, and Valka is determined to help the effort. She knows her skills as a pilot rival the best of the men, so when an all-female aviation group forms, Valka is the first to sign up. Flying has always meant freedom and exhilaration for Valka, but dropping bombs on German soldiers from a fragile canvas biplane is no joyride. The war is taking its toll on everyone, including the boy Valka grew up with, who is fighting for his life on the front lines. As the war intensifies and those around her fall, Valka must decide how much she is willing to risk to defend the skies she once called home. Inspired by the true story of the airwomen the Nazis called Night Witches, Gwen C. Katz weaves a tale of strength and sacrifice, learning to fight for yourself, and the perils of a world at war. (from the back cover of the book) This book can be used with advanced middle school students or with high school students studying World War II (WWII), flight/aviation, geography, or women in non-traditional roles. The four lesson plans included in this teaching guide all align with specific middle school and high school Common Core State Standards for History/Social Studies.
