"Little Big Horn" (also known as The Fighting Seventh) is a 1951 American Western film written and directed by Charles Marquis Warren starring Lloyd Bridges, John Ireland and Marie Windsor. It was also known as 'The Fighting Seventh'. Thank You - Great classic movie and history! ~~~ Be Safe out there folks - Peace & Health to Us All.

[@theuninvited1944GR]

In my opinion, this film is one of the most underrated Westerns of all time, yet it is on my Top Ten List as one of the greatest Westerns ever made.Great script, acting,direction,and an unforgettable music score."Little Big Horn" and "The Steel Helmet" produced by Lippert Studios proves that you don't have to spend a lot of money to make a great film.

I like him too, he was really a good actor and he was attractive. Plus, being the good Irish Girl I am, gotta like a guy named "Ireland"! ☘️ 🇮🇪

[@alvaropelayo8084]

He was nominated to an Academy award for All the king's men in 1949. He worked with some of the greatest stars of all time, John Wayne (Red River), Robert Taylor (Party Girl), Alan Ladd (The Red Mountain), Burt Lancaster (Vengeance Valley, Gunfight at the O K Corrall), Robert Mitchum (Farewell My Lovely), Charlton Heston (55 Days at Peking), Tony Curtis, Kirk Douglas, Laurence Olivier, Charles Laughton, Peter Ustinov (Spartacus), Joan Crawford (Queen Bee), Jean Simmons (Spartacus), Olivia de Havilland (The Adventurers), Sophia Loren (The Fall of the Roman Empire)

At 1:13:17 the sign Says Regina, Canada. Regina did not gets its' name until 1876, about 6 years after The Battle of the Little Big Horn. Saskatchewan was Aboriginal Territory until 1905 when it joined Canada and became a province. Edit - stupid me originally put 1872.

[@doesthepuzzle]

At 23:35 we see the photo of a trooper's pen pal bride on her way from Regina as well. The disclaimer at the beginning about no intended resemblance to anything, etc.. They could have said she was from Winnipeg, but old Hollywood took a lot of liberties with historical accuracy.

So in the ambush at 1.17n the Indians had modern Winchester repeaters, and the patrol had the old single shot Springfields? Hmmmm. ????

[@oldhippiejon]

They also had Henry repeaters Winchesters and muskets, interesting posts on LBH and weapons used.

[@jasonbutler7054]

yeah the Indians had Winchester repeaters and Henry repeaters which they liked because of the cocking action and they were given to them on the reservations. They had muskets as well and yes the 7th used single shot Springfields, they out ranged the Indians an the idea would be to keep them at range and don't close with them. Once the Indians got within 200 yards the winchesters and henry's really took there toll.

[@pracylopgonzer3176]

@@jasonbutler7054. You presented that very well. Yes the range of the Springfield’s was highly apprised by the Army but the Cheyenne were able to utilize ravines & rolling hills to close the distance so their shorter range repeating rifles now became a primary factor over range

[@2bingtim]

The army thought that it would be a waste of ammunition giving troopers Winchesters, that they'd use it all up too quickly. Plus they were more expensive than Springfeild carbines. However, not all Indians had Winchesters, many had other older guns or no gun at all, just bows, lances etc or just pistols. Troopers were found to have had problems with cartridge casings jamming in the carbines after firing a while. Army markmanship was generally quite poor too.

[@2bingtim]

The Springfield carbine actually often replaced the ACW era Spencer carbine that was a 7 shot repeater, though the most common ACW carbine was the single shot Sharps..

[@bethbartlett5692]

Actually, through my research/studies (Sociologist/Behavioralist and Historian), I've come to discover that Cluster received some defaming press. If his wife had not dedicated herself to writing and Speaking Engagements the remainder of her life, they would have really made a "Scape Goat" out of him. He was high Spirited, but "He followed Orders" period. They knew, they say him up for that tragedy. ... it had multiple purposes: To pave the way for an excuse, to finish destroying the Native People's. The Industrialists aka Corporatists of the era, were after their lands for Natural Resources, gold/silver/copper/lead/minerals, and the land for free Profiting on Land Sales. ... and the Railroads wanted free reign, plus no worries about fear over travels. Custer also was a threat to these Industrialists, he had already called out President Grant's brother, in Court, for accepting Money from the same individuals. These are the 1% 9f the 1% Elites whose grandchildren still "run this country" through their Ownerships and the system they say up in 1913, including the Privately Owned Federal Reserve Bank Corporation, which owns all Central Banks and 90% of the Financial Corps, IRS, CIA and way more. This can still be traced back through public records. I'm thinking Custer was set up for an assured assassination and the Native People's were fed info to make sure they would overpower the Calvary, but they didn't realize it would also seal their own fate. These people have such vast wealth, they employ, can and have paid for several detailed planned events. (Not a Theory when the facts are available.) They own the News Medias too, thus to distract folks, they fostered the public to automatically think "Conspiracies are just a trait of over-imagination", that concept "is" nuts, people conspired then and they do now.. Just worth noting, Custer's demise was not by his eagerness for glory, it was very much orchestrated. Best Thoughts, Beth

Historically, there was no "Indian trap". Custer led his force into a situation where the enemy was advantaged. The 7th Cav. was approximately 750 men, not 300.

[@michaelmueller7962]

correct - 'trap' in my opinion is a misleading description of his miscalculations. The different numbers we often come across might be the result of the divided forces.

[@Baskerville22]

@@michaelmueller7962 Yes, almost two-thirds of the 7th Cav - under Reno & Benteen - survived the battle. The Custer-led portion of the divided force was destroyed. It's amazing that so many individuals purporting to be "history buffs" don't understand this very basic fact of the Little Big-Horn affair.
