In light of Veterans Day, I would like to acknowledge ALL of those who have served and fought for our country. We love you and thank you. And I would highlight this Light, one of the most celebrated heroines in American history, Harriet Tubman. She is best known for ushering slaves to freedom through the Underground Railroad in the 1850s. But not everyone knows that Tubman, who escaped slavery in 1849, set up a vast espionage ring for the Union during the Civil War. She served as a cook, a nurse, and even a spy for the Union during the Civil War, and also was the first woman in American history to lead a military expedition.
In one of her most dangerous roles, Tubman helped Colonel James Montgomery plan a raid to free slaves from plantations along the river in South Carolina. And the morning of June 1, 1863, three gunboats caring several hundred male soldiers, along with Harriet Tubman set out for their mission. Tubman had gathered key information from her scouts about the Confederates positions, and knew where they were hiding along the shore. She also found they had placed torpedoes – – barrels filled with gunpowder – – in water. Ultimately, her group freed about 750 slaves – – men, women, children, and babies – – and did not lose one soldier in the attack. Reporting on the raid to Secretary of War Stanton, Brigidier General Rufus Saxton said, "this is the only military command and American history where in a woman, black or white, led the raid, and under whose inspiration it was originated and conducted." Sadly, Tubman was paid only $200 during her three years of service and was denied pension for her spy work. I found this on Military.Com which has several stories of those who have served our great nation if you would like to read more incredible stories.
