I was a nurse and finally became the first woman in US history to receive a congressional pension for military service 🤭

Now I speak to you from heaven to tell you what happened to my life after I left the army #HistoryatVasco

According to the New York Historical Association, I have been "honored like no other woman of the revolution." #HistoryatVasco

In 1783, after several years working in the continental army, my time has come to resign, these years have been very hard but thanks to all of us we are making the world a better place #HistoryatVasco

A few years ago I was included in the Invalid Corps, created by Congress for wounded soldiers. And last year 1781, the Corps of Invalids became part of the garrison at West Point, New York. #HistoryatVasco
