Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
When it comes to true bravery, there's no greater example than Deborah Sampson, a hero of the American Revolution who disguised herself as a man so she could join the Patriot forces. Not only was she the only woman to earn a full military pension for her participation in the Revolutionary army, but she continued to fight despite numerous injuries and difficulties. Her story is truly remarkable.

You neglected to mention SS Deborah, a Liberty Ship (2620) named in her honor, which served in WWII. The US Navy also has the USS Sampson (DDG-102, a guided missile cruiser, which is also named for her. The ship is currently on active duty.

There are written accounts of women who fought during the Civil War for the Union. They weren't discovered to be to be women, until after they had fallen.
