Dozens gathered on Veterans Day at the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad State Park in Maryland’s Dorcester County for a formal ceremony making Tubman a one-star brigadier general in the state’s National Guard.
This actually seems insulting lol. She was like a sort of underground resistance fighter and they’re giving her the lowest ranked general in the national guard.
i sincerely thought this was /c/fakenews at first…
i thought “oh people aren’t gonna like this one!”
but the united states truly is beyond parody
I’m sorry what?
She fought for the Union during the US Civil war. Ran spy networks, lead at least one raid in the confederate territory with a couple of steam gunships and a lot of soldiers.
She was kind of ridiculously bad ass. Less nice old lady, more Solid Snake.
