During Liberia's recent civil war, a special unit of female-only soldiers fought under the command of a 20 year old 'girl'- Colonel 'Black Diamond.' These 600 AK-47 toting, Gucci bag, red nail painted, and designer jean wearing women struck terror into the hearts of whoever they encountered. When men attempted to go through road blocks, they knew that if males were present, they had a chance of getting through- but if Black Diamond's unit was around, they knew they would be tortured and killed. Black Diamond's force was largely responsible for the success of the rebellion; she personally led the attack that captured the capitol of Monrovia.
