In Memory of Clara Barton

The Civil War posts will continue for the next few days, but I felt like taking a break covering them to share something special.



This was just released by the United States ambassador to Armenia, John A. Heffern.  Clara Barton was instrumental in saving countless lives during the Civil War.  She never turned down someone in need of assistance, no matter their race, religion, or even side in a conflict.  She and the American Red Cross have done truly spectacular relief efforts ever since, working both at home and abroad to help the world recover from natural and man-made disasters.

They are always in need of donations, especially blood.
