While I agree that (most) mainstream video games suffer from a jarring lack of strong female characters, in this case the cause for alarm happens to be untrue. Meet Lt. Tanya Pavelovna, the second playable character in the first Call of Duty game, subtitled Finest Hour.

She represents the many women and civilians who took up arms in defense of their country during WWII, many of which would never see the end of the war.
