excellent capture
Excellent shot, sad memorial...
Great capture
great shot
Custer's rushed effort to kill the Sioux , but the Sioux kicked their butt . it was all about greed of the wealthy people wanting to ravish the land of the natural resources. sort of the way it is now
I totally agree Richard!
Great picture.
To an man their blood was empty in to the Earth..... If I remember right George Armstrong Custer refused to take the latest fire power with him because it would have slow'd him and the 7th Cavalry down The Little Big Horn name is an part of the history of those times...
Great capture!
Good shot. "Custer's Luck," as he called it, ran out when he was out fought by sharper commanders. As usual the soldiers paid the bill. I also agree with Richard.
I was at that site (Custer's last Stand) in 1992 and video taped some of the grave site and after I came home and played what I had taped I realized that I had mumbled quote " Deserved you right, you bastard'. He had it coming. The Indians cleaned his clock, they won the battle but lost the war. Sitting Bull wound up seeking refuge in Canada.
Superb capture my friend. God bless.
