Even though my hero is now dead, I will always remember brave and helpful Molly Pitcher.Fantastic location for this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath Colonial detached home in the desirable Independence community of Manassas. A hero is a great person to look up to and a great person to get advice from. Her three great qualities are: bravery, helpfulness, and perseverance. Unfortunately, Molly died at the age of 78 in the year 1832, but she still remains a hero. She encouraged them not to worry, but to rest, and try to heal as soon as they could, so the next day they could fight again. Another thing that she did for the soldiers was when the soldiers were hurt, she would check on them every night to see if they were okay. Molly woke up every few hours just to make sure the enemy soldiers weren’t around. At night, the soldiers would stop fighting and would continue the next day. She was fearless and she knew she could do it. She was lucky and it just ripped her skirt. Another time she didn't give up was when she was firing her husband’s cannon and an enemy cannonball almost hit her. Many soldiers got heatstroke and died, but Molly, in her boiling hot outfit, never gave up. I can’t imagine running back and forth from the stream to the battlefield in 98-degree weather, especially in a long skirt and a blouse. As I said, Molly Pitcher liked to help the soldiers. Molly Pitcher had many fine qualities, but one of her strongest ones was perseverance. Thanks to Molly Pitcher, many wounded soldiers lived. If she had arrived just a few moments later, the soldier would have been killed. Later, she helped a dying soldier out of the line of fire. When she saw soldiers lying on the ground in 98-degree weather, she would pull them into the nice, cool shade, which is one of the reasons why they lived. She felt that they deserved to live, especially after they had risked their lives to fight in the war. She definitely helped them to survive the heat, as well as the war. She was helpful when she was bringing water to the soldiers. Molly Pitcher was not only brave, she was also very helpful. Molly was lucky and survived, but she deserved to live after all she had done and all the soldiers she had helped. She was brave even when going to the stream to fill the pitcher up with water because the enemies on the other side were hiding in bushes, waiting to attack. In just one day, many soldiers had been saved because of her. From that day on, they knew her as Molly Pitcher. She could have been shot, but when she heard those soldiers shout, “Molly-Pitcher,” she just couldn’t resist. Also, she was really brave when she had to run through the battlefield to get pitchers of water to take to the hot and thirsty soldiers. She proved that not only men can fight, but women can fight, too. She didn’t even help him up, but went right to his cannon and started blasting. It wasn’t just that, because seeing him fall to the ground must have broken her heart. Mary Hays was brave when she had to fight in her husband’s place when she was only 19 years old, in the year 1763. Mary Hays first showed that she was a hero through her bravery. We definitely have her to thank for saving soldiers' lives, and we can consider her a true hero. Mary Hays is my hero because, in her life, she lived the qualities that make a hero and used them to save numerous soldiers wounded in battle. If heroes do something amazing, it teaches us that we can help and do the same. A real hero is someone who stands up for what she believes in, doesn't care what other people think, and does what she can to help. My hero is Mary Hays, but she was known as Molly. My hero's qualities are: bravery, helpfulness, and perseverance. There are many different kinds of heroes, and many different qualities that heroes can have.
