If this is true, she should be a patron saint for prosecuted children

Why is her story not a movie yet? She should be as famous as Oskar Schindler

Not just sedate the children, she had also trained her dog to randomly pant/bark or wheeze when she would stop at checkposts, to cover up the noise of children breathing/crying

She was always one of biggest heroes to me, ever! I heard even that when she was about to be gunned down, one of gestapo officers suddenly shouted: Run, get out of here! Even with such bad leg wounds, she managed to get out with her life. My greatest honor and respect to our national hero ā¤

A strong and kind woman. Vinland Saga fandom would be proud of someone like her.

A loving hearth was enough, because I belive many warriors fight for their beloved ones.

A Day In History
They wanted names but Irena Sendler had 2,500 reasons to stay silent.
The Gestapo tortured this Polish social worker until her legs and feet were nothing but broken bone. Hour after hour, they demanded she reveal her network - the people who'd helped her smuggle Jewish children out of the Warsaw Ghetto during the Holocaust.
Irena had become a master of impossible rescues. She'd forge medical papers that fooled Nazi inspectors, sneak babies out in toolboxes and sacks, even sedate children to keep them quiet through checkpoints. Over 2,500 kids owed their lives to her courage.
She carefully wrote down every child's name and identity, then buried those papers in jars under a tree. She never stopped believing those children would survive and want to find their families again.
Even facing death, even with her body shattered, she said nothing. The Gestapo sentenced her to die and somehow, she escaped.
Irena Sendler's weapon of choice? A mother's heart and a warrior's will.
