The Germans so feared Lady Death that they attempted to bribe her. ‘Lyudmila Pavlichenko, come over to us. We will give you lots of chocolate and make you a German officer,’ Pavlichenko once recalled hearing over a loudspeaker. When charm didn’t work, they moved onto threats and on Pavlichenko's last day on the frontline, they shouted, 'If we catch you, we will tear you into 309 pieces and scatter them to the winds!'

The papers dubbed her the ‘girl sniper’, belittling her achievements with condescension and sexism.
