    From the American Revolutionary War through the Civil War women contributed to the war in both conventional and unconventional ways. In serving as what we would call today Combat Service Support, they took care of the wounded, brought water to troops, provided laundry services, and served as cooks. Many women directly supported the cause by disguising themselves as men in order to fight in the war. Two such documented cases were Deborah Sampson during the American Revolutionary War and Elizabeth Newcom during the Mexican War. Sampson served in the Continental Forces for over a year, she only earned half of the pension the men received during that time. Newcom enlisted in the Missouri volunteer Infantry and marched for over 600 miles. Once discovered, the military…

    St. Joan is someone who took “no” for an answer and stood up for what she believed in. What was so cool about this was that she was no older than I am now, and she fought as hard as she could just based off of her beliefs. Also, during the 1400s, a woman did not do anything outside of her home, especially without a male. She went against all of the standards that society had and fought for her faith. St. Joan is great role model (especially to women and girls) that helps you realize that you can get out of your comfort zone and trust God, even when things are…
