Wasn't that the nickname for an all-female Russian commando group that worked various acts of sabotage and mayhem on the German army?

Thank you for that link, Sven. How brave she must have been, death always at hand, surrounded by enemies. She defined courage.

The Night Witches were Soviet female pilots who would glide to their targets with their engines switched off and then manually start them mid flight to achieve surprise. Not an easy task.

Indy, this guy got it right. Those women did things that would make. Modern fighter jet jocks cringe. They we're terribly successful at makibghe eastern front hell for the nazis. They flew under horrific conditions to bomb enemny camps.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
