Marlene Deitrich birthday She didnt work for me but...

Marlene Dietrich was one of Germany’s most famous actresses, but by all accounts was firmly against Hitler and the Nazi regime during World War II. The actress performed in USO shows to help support the Allied forces, but was still suspected to be a German spy early in the war, according to the FBI. However, many believe her role was much closer to the one played by Diane Kruger’s character in Inglourious Bastards. That is to say, she was a “traitor” to her homeland and wanted desperately to help defeat the Third Reich.

Dietrich reportedly volunteered for espionage work for the (OSS) Office of Strategic Services, though much of her contributions during the war effort involved keeping the spirits of the troops high in their fight against the Nazis. After all, she still had family living in Germany Still, she’s one of the most famous starlets believed to have been working for the government during World War II, and is the only person on this list to have been suspected of spying for both sides. Hoover didnt like her, interesting as she went both ways, just not his way lol

She lived in another era for sure RIP born in 1901 so was in her 40's during the war while entertaining our troops.
