She still retained a Croatian accent, and was taught to fluently speak and write English and Croatian and she can speak a bit of basic conversational Italian. Her family was well involved in a chain of jewelry companies, and thus were quite affluent. Perhaps this is why Viktoria enjoys to bedeck herself in gold jewelry, simply because she was raised around beautiful pieces of jewelry and grew to appreciate such artwork. The start of World War II began to surface when she was only ten years old. With the increasingly disastrous state of Europe, Viktoria's family decided it was best for the Viola's to leave their home and immigrate to the United States. Her family ended up settling on the west coast. As she grew older, she was introduced to photography through family friends, and her obsession only grew. The war was coming to an end in the late 40's. Growing up in such a chaotic time, she began to become interested in War Photography. She saw the difference the career made, so she was trained in basic first aid and combat before she was deployed into Europe to photograph the war. In 1949, she finally returned home from spending three years abroad with US forces. Her view on the world was broadened drastically by experiencing the effects of war first hand. As a way to memorialize the memory of it, she came in possession of two distinct tattoos listed above. Viktoria was also trained as a pilot after her initial contract in Europe. She trained with an all-woman testing unit. They analyzed flight equipment to confirm that it was fit to be flown out in war. Despite the unit's expertise, they were never authorized to fly in combat zones due to the non-combat restrictions placed on woman. However, she was once again deployed a into a major combat zone during the Korean War in July, 1950, not as a pilot, but as a war photographer. While she never fought along side the US soldiers, she accompanied many battalions into the war. She experienced the thick and thin of the war, and returned home with more than enough scars, memories, and photographs to prove it. While she was in France on a sort of 'vacation', she met Victor Lyons at a bar. The two exchanged conversation for a few hours before she left and returned to her hotel. A few months later, she was surprised to have received a letter from the man, claiming to need her assistance. Too curious to deny the job, she accepted. Other: |
