Leesha Rose tells her story, from high school student in The Hague in 1939, to her participation in the Dutch Resistance. The Nazi invasion of Holland in 1940 disrupted her plans and changed the entire direction of her life. Her parents and her two brothers were deported to concentration camps. She worked as a nurse in Jewish hospitals in Amsterdam and escaped deportation on three separate occasions at great risk to her life. In 1943 she became active in the Dutch Resistance, assuming a new name and identity. She found hiding places for hundreds of Jews, fed and cared for them, and also participated in underground activities against the Nazi oppressor.
