My history crush is Lyudmila Pavlichenko. 

She was a Ukrainian sniper during WW2, joining after the university she was studying at got bombed. She was so good and so well-known that the Nazis tried to bribe her to join them, and knew her by first name. Of course, she never did. Eventually she was injured and had to stop fighting, but not before killing over 300 people.
