Today is June 25th. In the year 1876, a fedgov incompetent named George Armstrong Custer (who graduated dead last in his West Point class of 1861 and was court-martialed in 1867) foolishly rode and marched to the Little Big Horn and was promptly shuffled off from his mortal coil.

Vaccinated by two bullets, one to the head.

It was a trap.

The Cheyenne and Lakota Sioux finally resisted.

Happy Custer’s Last Stand Day!

    Probably more like his last sit (upon his horse) never had the chance to stand.

    Is Trump our crazy horse?

    he had them with him, i think
    left them somewhere
    i do not remember where or the exact details, been a while that i read up
    doctrine of there use was akin to them being used as cannon
    Brits had similar issues with them in the Zulu wars

    Well Custer was a brave sob. He should have waited to go in until his back-up arrived. He was impetuous! N
