Ah, don't let the facts stand in the way of your conclusions eh? I think you've drank too much of the PC kool-aid. When Islamic nut-jobs slammed 3/4 planes into buildings/ground slaughtering some 3990 civilians, would you consider that a 'battle'?
Washita was not a battle in any sense of the word.
US forces had congregated the Cheyenne/Arapaho in that area, Black Kettle did attempt to surrender only to be rebuffed, and Custer's men did attack Washita at dawn, firing first into the village. Custer was simply following Sheridan's orders to exterminate the 'savages' (post Darwinian justification) and continue the ruling party's quest for a lily-white West.

There wasn’t any massacre at Washita. It’s pure pro-Indian revisionism. Everytime they are defeated, they said that they were massacred by the bad bad whites.
