    Clara Barton is correct. She got her start in the American Civil War often putting herself in harms way to treat wounded soldiers. With support, she founded the American Red Cross late 19th century.

    Yep I got to get better at picking these people. I think I am going to start passing my turn to someone else so there can be more challenge.

    In going back and looking at that image again (after I answered it), I noticed that the image was given away by right clicking, selecting "properties", then seeing the name of the image based on the link. This is an easy way for anyone to quickly find and identify an image. I've seen this a few times already on this thread and to avoid this, one can do the following.

    1) Find an image and save it to the desktop of your computer
    2) Make sure you rename the image so that it doesn't provide any hints
    3) Go to www.imageshack.com, hit browse and upload the image
    4) Hit the link that says view larger
    5) Copy the web address
    6) Hit add reply on the thread
    7) Hit the icon above where you type (yellow and gray that looks like a mountain with a moon) and paste the address in there
    8) Hit submit reply and you're done

    You can have my turn if you like Magister or anyone else for that matter as I'm winding down my night.

    Cool. It's just a few extra steps and when you get in the groove it just takes a few minutes.

    Anybody is welcome to take my turn.
