#Fencing #HeleneMayer #Berlin1936

In this special episode of 3 minutes for glory, I bring you the story of German fencer Helene Mayer. If her story made the headline in her days, very little is known about the fencer from Offenbach.
What would you do if you had the opportunity to participate to the olympic games for a country that despises you? This is the choice Mayer had to do before the 1936 Berlin Games
