Deborah Sampson (1760-1827) was only 18 when she went to fight but was rejected by the general because of her sex. So she dressed as a man and was allowed in. Fighting under the alias Robert Shirtliff, she was wounded in 1782 but allowed to receive an honorable discharge in 1783. Nine years later, in 1792, she was granted payment for her service by the state of Massachusetts and governor John Hancock.
