St Joan of Arc
Joan of Arc- another very familiar image. Commander of the entire French army at 17, executed by the British at 19. Famously portayed in film by Ingrid Bergman( mmm) and also Milla Jovovich (mmmm mmm) amongst others.

St. Joan is one of my most favorite saints. I always thought she was awesome for the things she did and stood for.
