If I could meet anyone in history, it would be Elizabeth Smith Friedman.
The first woman Cryptanalyst (code breaker).Famous mostly for breaking Nazi codes during WW2. Even though no one really knew about it till now.. Elizabeth went to her grave with this little secret while the FBI took the credit..
It's a shame,she risked her life for our country .

Amelia Earhart would be fascinating to meet. She was an inspiration in my pursuit to be an Army Aviation Officer. She defied conventional feminine behavior and relentlessly pursued her dream. Being the only female in my Army R.O.T.C class was challenging yet I pursued the hardest branch to be selected for and dared to have a successful military career despite the obstacles like Amelia Earhart. She did things her way, smiling al the way. It would be an honor to meet her and learn more about her upbringing, challenges, achievements and dreams.

I would like to meet George Patton who was rough on servicemen and sometimes to much so. But he made the soldiers toe the mark.
PTSD is REAL so a gental touch with battle fatigue is
required. I Honor George S.
Patton even though He was so often wrong.

I would like to have met Eleanor Roosevelt. I did my high school term paper on this amazing lady. For one thing, I love many of her quotes. In particular, "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent". I love how she supported the Tuskegee airmen and all of her work with the UN after having severed so long as First Lady. I think her intelligence and her understanding of the importance of basic, human and civil rights is understated. She also could convey deep thoughts in a very simple way.

If I could I would like to meet Jacky Robinson. I would thank him for being both the first black baseball player to break the color barrier in the major leagues, but also for improving play across the board. Without him as a leader, the game would not be what it is today.

If I could meet anyone in history it would be Martin Luther King Jr. To be able to speak with him about his mission and the obstacles he faced is something that I’ve always wanted to know on a more personal level. Ofcourse we see what is written and the videos that have been put out about his movement, but to get a better picture of what was going on in his head personally would be great.

I’d like to me George Washington to get his thoughts from the French and Indian War, to founding a nation, the Revolution and finally how he came to define the office of President.

Harriet Tubman. She was selfless, courageous, strong and patriotic! As a free woman she made numerous trips to bring enslaved people to free territory. After years of that she joined the military and led troops into battle for our country. She was a heroic woman with an incredible story.

I would want to meet Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He was a great man who believed in true equality of people. It is a shame that in all these years that humankind has existed we still have a pervasive belief that some people are better than others by right of skin color, religion, sex, or any other condition. It is a sad reality that this learned behavior keeps being taught to new generations, and doesn't stay in the past where it belongs. MLK was a man who knew that violence does not change perception, and that only through new learning and truly finding the love in those around you could teach the value of all types of people.
