Col. John Ironhorse USMC Ret. Lived 1960 to 2016. 100% Ogala Sioux.
Raised on the Res.
Collected tanks and old planes. (I asked him where he got them from and he said "God sends them to me."
He shipped a Russian tank back from the gulf by painting it and putting it in inventory.
Passed last month in a plane crash with my Goddaughter Elizabeth (Lil Bit).
We ate a lot of the same dirt overseas.
He was a very success man but never treated others with less any different than himself.
I was Blessed to call him Friend.

Wait a second. Was that Russian tank painted yellow upon entry to the US?
