Daughter of a colonel of the Kuban Cossacks she joined the 3rd Ekaterinodar Regiment at the age of 14 becoming its only female soldier and soon was appointed a mascot of her unit. Marina fought in both World War I and the Russian Civil War. Performing various duties in combat including auto mechanic driver sapper patrol etc. she was wounded in several instances and won the Cross of Saint George for bravery three times. On the last occasion Marina and approximately another 100 soldiers walked through the Siberian snow for a month injured in order to reach the American Hospital in Vladivostok. After recuperating she was given a safe passage to Japan and later in 1922 to the United States where she married cinematographer William C. Hyer 1905 - 1989 and performed as a dancer. Yurlova published her autobiography in three stand-alone volumes - Cossack Girl 1934 Russia Farewell 1936 and the current one in 1937 - which roughly covered the Russian Japanese and American periods of her life. Her Wikipedia article stated that although Cossack Girl had been reprinted copies of Russia Farewell are rare and those of The Only Woman even more so.
