Did they ever change the name of of this place? From Custer Battlefield National Monument, I believe it was. The Lakota Sioux wanted it changed to Crazy Horse Battlefield or Sitting Bull Battlefield, since they were the winners.......

Now they have the Little Bighorn Casino, next to the gas station, next to the convenient store. It's a shame....it was a nice place to visit.

No, they don't want that. It was the beginning of the end. Anyway it was all about Custer, not George, but his brother.

Won the battle. Lost the war. I say it's Custer's battlefield.
