Oh no I know nothing about it clown. I’ve only read every book I could ever find on the battle of the Little Bighorn since I was 10 years old.
I also live within driving distance of the battlefield and visit it frequently.
The only bullchit coming out of this thread is that which you are spewing.
Historian Robert Utley on Little Big Horn
Despite the consequences, the decision to attack on June 25 was sound. [
]
Benteen counted himself out, as timing factors shows. When he came back to the main trail, he was about half an hour behind Custer and Reno. When he neared the mouth of Reno Creek, he was one hour and twenty minutes behind. Had he moved at the same pace as Custer, had he RESPONDED to the messages brought by Kanipe and Martin [which were orders] with the swiftness that Custer expected, Benteen migh well have fought alongside Custer. [ ] that dont excuse the laggard pace that kept one-fourth of the regiment out of the fight at the decisive moment.
Reno also failed Custer, as well as every test of leadership. [ ]
Could Custer have won ? [ ] Good arguments, however, do support a conclusion that, even against the Sioux and Cheyennes in all their numbers and power, he could have won. [ ]
[Benteens] swift march on Custers trail on receiving Kanipes report [or orders] might have brought him to Medicine Tail with the action still centered there. Had Reno held in the valley, Benteens timely appearance would have given Custer eight companies with which to storm into the village and perhaps carry the day.
But one conclusion seems plain : George Armstrong Custer doesnt deserve the indictement that history has imposed on him for his actions at the Little Bighorn. Given what he knew at each decision point and what he had every reason to expect from his subordinates, one is hard pressed to say that he ought to have done differently.
