In this episode, the little-known feats of journalists, nurses and guerilla fighters take center stage. Female war correspondents were treated with suspicion by the Allied top brass and kept from the frontline; two brave American reporters broke the rules. Martha Gellhorn was furious that she couldn't be with the D-Day fleet, so she stowed away on a hospital ship and landed on the toughest beach of them all, Omaha. Lee Miller was a former model turned photojournalist. She found herself in the heat of the action in Normandy and then in Dachau where she took some of the first photos of the horrors of the camps.
