While in the “Secret Service” as a “Spy,” which is one of the most hazardous positions in the army—she penetrated the enemy’s lines, in various disguises, no less than eleven times; always with complete success and without detection.Featured on History of the Norwegian People.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.
