We visited the state/national? park that is where Custer and his men died. It made the hair on my arms rise up as we walked and drove around the battle ground. Battle fields always do something to me I can’t explain.

It's easy for us today to say how it should have been done in hindsight. Better for us to just raise a glass in honor to the fighters on both sides of this terrible conflict and salute their bravery. They did their duty as they understood it to be, both the US cavalry and the Native American tribes. May their example continue to inspire and humble us today.
