Harriet Tubman awarded posthumous rank of general on Veterans Day

"Today, we celebrate a soldier and a person who earned the title of veteran. Tubman escaped slavery herself and established the Underground Railroad network for others to achieve freedom."
"Aunt Harriet was one of those veterans informally, she gave up any rights that she had obtained for herself to be able to fight for others. She is a selfless person."
