Molly Pitcher’s primary mission was to carry water for the crews. She took over for her husband when he fell out (he survived). Molly would have sponged the piece & rammed down the charge & ball, but I doubt she aimed & fired it. The gunner was in charge of firing.

Anyway....I don’t know about women Marines in combat MOSs. Just don’t.
