Zinaida Martynovna Portnova, also known as Zina Portnova (Зинаида Мартыновна Портнова, born at 20.february 1926) was soviet partisan and the youngest-ever female Hero of the Soviet Union (on 1. July 1958). She also received The Order of Lenin.
-----
An incident with the invading Nazi troops, who hit her grandmother while they were confiscating the cattle, led her to hate the Germans. In 1942 Portnova joined the Belarusian resistance movement, and became a member of the local underground Komsomol organization in Obol, Vitebsk Voblast, named "Young Avengers". She began by distributing Soviet propaganda leaflets in the German-occupied Belarus, collecting and hiding weapons for Soviet soldiers, and reporting on German troop movements. After learning how to use weapons (her favourite was stolen Maschinpistole 40 (MP 40)) and explosives she participated in sabotage actions at a pump, local power plant, and brick factory. These acts are estimated to have killed upwards of 100 German soldiers.
------
In 1943, Portnova became employed as a kitchen aid in Obol. In August, she poisoned the food for the Nazi garrison stationed there. Immediately falling suspect, she said she was innocent and ate some of the food in front of the Nazis to prove it was not poisoned- after she did not fall ill immediately, they released her. Portnova became sick afterwards, vomiting heavily but eventually recovering from the poison after drinking much whey. After she didn't return to work, the Germans realized she had been the culprit and started searching for her. She became a scout of the partisan unit named after Kliment Voroshilov. In a letter sent to her parents that month, she wrote that "together, [they] would beat the Nazis"
