Default Little Big Horn +136

For those of you into military history, 25 -26 June marks the 136th anniversary of the Battle of the Little Big Horn in what is now Montana, USA. MG George Armstrong Custer commanding the 7th US Cavalry Regiment was defeated by the Sioux and Cheyenne Nations. Custer and the battalion under his direct command were wiped out.

The Custer battlefield is a great National Park and well worth seeing if you get the chance... we were there last year and it puts perspective on the battle.
