In the summer of 1917 Aaria
Botchkareva formed the Battalion
of Death, a woman's fighting unit in
the Russian army, and a peasant
girl thus stepped into the interna-
tional hal of fame. In the earlier
installments she told of the hard
ships of her childhood, the brutali-
ties of her married life and the real
ization of her wish to become SOL
dier. She told of battles fought and
won and of the demoralization of
the army after the overthrow of
the Car. It was her desire to shame
the men into action that prompted
her to form the Battalion of Death,
with the consent of KerenSky. But
she meets with difficulties. War.

and paCifists attack her insidioulN.
But she temporarily wins out and is
