Hannah Senesz, executed in Budapest aged twenty-three, occupies a place of honour in the Israeli pantheon. A symbol of courage, fortitude and pioneering spirit, she refused to request a pardon from the Hungarian authorities and became a prime example of 'purist' Israeli heroism, bridging the gap between the Holocaust and the rebirth of a sovereign Jewish nation. Yet Senesz was only one of seven parachutists from Eretz Yisrael who lost their lives in a clandestine British mission into occupied Europe during the second world war, a mission which ultimately involved nearly forty parachutists both men and women who were dropped behind enemy lines to aid the British forces while simultaneously organizing the remaining Jewish communities towards resistance
