I have a Springfield Model 1873 Cavalry Carbine from the 7th Cavalry and taken after the battle by one of the warriors under Chief Lame Deer. I need to make a provision in my will that it will go to the museum after I do the final check-out. The carbine also has the spirit of the young cavalryman that carried it and was killed at the battle.

unfortunately what the indians did "and what custer did" at little big horn, was the beginning of a very bloody end for the native americans, and that battle actually served no purpose at all except to be the final nail in the coffin of american native indians. but one thing for sure,,,they do own a hell of a lot of casino's and a shit ton of land with all the mineral rights on that land.

There's a pretty good book about Custer called Custer's trials by T.J. Stiles. I haven't gotten all the way through it yet, but I have read the part about his experience in and just after the Civil War. It's pretty interesting how somebody was the hero and then goes to being much maligned in modern day times (for many reasons, rightfully so).

Pity, I have never been there an would've liked to see more..... If you are thinking of doing this again, think slow, steady and focus on what is really interesting..... Keep it up....

The Sioux won the fight for sure. They were protecting land which they had stolen from other Indians. But, let's not make it look like an enormous victory. Custer was outgunned 10 to 1 at least and Sioux had better weapons. Keep in mind that Custer had only 200 men with him against 3,000 or more Sioux. Just setting the record straight. Don't blame the Indians either. They had stolen the land fair and square a hundred or so years before. It was not a long ancestral home, just a century or so. They took it by force and whites took it from them by force. It's the way things were done back then.

James Strachan It was a clash of different worlds. The Sioux knew they were doomed in the long run, and did their best. They knew a lot more than you might think. I may have thought you meant when Sherman was out on patrol and narrowly missed capture. I see now you mean longer strategic, not small local tactical, knowledge. Don't sell the Sioux or the other Indians short. As for Custer, he performed well under standard Army doctrine at the time, but he did not have good intelligence as to the location and numbers of the Indians. He was vain, arrogant, ambitious, and at the same time a brilliant tactical combat officer. Done sell him short, either. I will agree his wife's unrelenting efforts sort of canonized him.

Custer followed orders from his superiors Phil Sheridan and US Grant the President. Custer was no coward 11 horses shot out under neath him in the Civil War. General Patton said during WWII, " Better to have a bad plan of attack, than no plan at all". A lot of Generals made hasty decisions, but if successful they became legendary, if they failed whipping boys. People can say what they wish about Custer, but others were equal in their quest, brutality on both sides as far as killing women and children, show me any war were civilians were not killed?

Yup. Custer was obviously no coward. And undoubtedly he was following orders. He met a determined enemy who conquered him and that is war.

I have seen no reason not to believe she was a good and intelligent woman and she never wavered in her support of him.

Land stealing, killing, raping, torturing.... lol, doing whatever the stronger side decided to do....was EXACTLY what the Indian tribes did to each other....go do research The problem.....a stone aged culture...got contacted by a much stronger, much more technologically developed....STRONG GROUP The Indians NOW... just whine, cry and play the victim.......but all they got was what they had given to weaker tribes for centuries

All visitor centers are complete rip offs. very high price goods that are basic junk. The Gettysburg battle field visitor center also has very high priced items. A coffee cup with Gettysburg logo on it sells for 25 bucks. salt and pepper shakers cost near 30 bucks. Rip OFFS.

Custer was an idiot his whole career. His main battle strategy was to tuck his head down and charge. Many people compare him to General Patton. But that's not true. Patton had a brain and a "method to his madness". What Custer had in full measure during his career was an incredible amount of luck, not unlike Inspector Clouseau. But his luck ran out on June 26, 1876. Too bad had to uselessly pull so many down with him.

Custer was very arrogant and pompous.i kind of got the idea of he thought he was immortal. Done alot of research on him. I am not impressed by his leadership. He is not someone I would follow into battle. He had to many things to prove. This was a sad day in American history. This general should have been sacked.love the native American customs and traditions. The Sioux are very spiritual and fascinating native American culture
