Who was Apache?

Apache was a female Viet Cong sniper and interrogator known as "Apache", because of her methods of torturing US Marines and ARVN troops and letting them bleed to death.

She was killed in 1966 by Carlos Hathcock, who was part of a sniper team of the United States Marine Corps. His partner, Captain Edward James Land, manned the spotting scope, while Hathcock hit her with both of the rounds that he fired.
