I found these photos on The Atlantic dot com - World War II: Women at War. Most of the pictures are of Allied women, but these eight are not. Three of these pictures are of rather famous German women whom I had never heard of:

• Leni Riefenstahl
• Captain Hanna Reitsch
• Elisabeth "Lilo" Gloeden

 Opened a whole new section of history for me.

Update March 2016. Replaced pictures that vanished when Flickr account vanished.
