Tosia Altman
edit
Jewish fighters surrender
* ... that Tosia Altman survived the Warsaw Ghetto uprising (pictured) only to die in an accidental fire two weeks later? [1]
- ALT1:... that Tosia Altman's blonde hair enabled her to pass as a Pole and travel between Nazi ghettos in Poland to organize armed resistance to the Holocaust? Source: same as above
- ALT1. 5:... that Tosia Altman traveled between Nazi ghettos in Poland to organize armed resistance to the Holocaust? Source: same as above
- ALT2:... that most Jewish resistance couriers during the Holocaust, including Tosia Altman, were women? Source: Bauer, Yehuda (2002). Rethinking the Holocaust. p. 172. "Because Jewish men were marked by circumcision, Jewish women could more easily move around in Nazi-occupied Poland, which meant that they filled the centrally important role of emissaries between the ghettos; Vladka Peltel-Meed of the Bund, Tosia Altmann and Frumka Plotnicka of the Zionists, and many others did this work."

5x expanded by Catrìona (talk). Self-nominated at 18:04, 8 August 2018 (UTC).
New enough (expansion began 17 edits ago on 7 August 2018), long enough (8,877 characters "readable prose size"), fully referenced. Striking main hook; she died from the fire, but not actually in the fire. ALT 1 and 1.5 okay, verified by online source. ALT2 okay, verified against the source. Image is not used in the article Recommend that ALT 1, 1.5 or ALT2 be run without the image. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:27, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
