Custer’s near stationary attack by fire at Five Forks was decisive. Custer knew there was a time for planing and a time for execution, or as he would put it “Up Guards! At Them!”

Custer’s actions during the entire Civil War are amazing.

He was extremely brave. It is amazing that he came through the entire war without any serious injury.

His leadership during the Civil War helped the Union win the war.

I think they said he made the cover of Harpers five times.
