Once again we agree. “Custer’s Luck” ran out when he left those Gatling guns behind. Things could have been a lot different. It can’t be disputed, he was one brave dude. Just made a few bad decisions in the Black Hills. And then there is “Libby” who also helped stick it to Major Reno.
Wikipedia actually has a pretty complete write up on Custer’s last stand.
