Mary Edwards Walker

"Women's names are as precious to her as men, customs must be dominant, anyone keeps their name when they get married and the kids decide what names they like at some age It's a wonderful historical life This is a sentence from the life of May Edwards Walker, which means that she did not take the last name of her husband when she got married. Mary Edwards Walker was born on 26th November 1832 in the rural area of ​​Oswego, New York. There are historic marks in the birthplace of Bunker Hill.

Mary Edwards Walker is not a man who does not know to steal enemies secretly. When she is not a surgeon who tends to get hurt in the league, she sometimes enters the territory of the federal government - with an escort armed with a saddlebag and two pistols - providing hunger and poor citizens with supplies. But one day, General William Tecum Sherman asked her to start a fundamentally different job. On April 10, 1864, Walker entered the South Coalition territory alone to gather information for the Atlanta campaign. When I encountered the enemy, she went out by hand as she became peaceful. Soon, a group of Confederates soldiers found her. She offered them the proof of lack of delivery, but her blue surgeon's uniform betrayed the truth. They used her as a prisoner under the gun. This is the moment of deciding her position in American history.

Mary Edwards Walker was one of the few female surgeons of the time, and he sought a request from a military surgeon. The government refused her offer and appointed her as a nurse. Three years after this position she was appointed an assistant surgeon. The allied army awarded medals to her service. For some women, being a nurse is not enough. There are as many as 400 women fighting allies and allies, pretending to be men to fight, there is a danger of being jailed when arrested. The fight with women is the same as men. From patriotism, to eliminate slavery, earn money, and escape from difficult or dissatisfied family life. Because women pretend to be men, they do the same work as men. They work at the forefront, cook, act as spies, and take care of the injured.
