Red Cloud is the only military leader to force the US government to sue for peace.
What about chief Oseola (Seminoles)? The U.S. govt. sued for a peace treaty (still in effect).
Maybe I missed something?

Not my take on Osceola. He was in custody before the hostilities ended, and that only took place after the government got tired of pumping money and troops into Florida and the Seminoles basically agreed to stick to the Everglades. The government never sued for peace.
