@Neil Daly It was one of half a dozen stories I left out. I probably should have included it. Indeed, Adolph Metzger's story is corroborated by the Indian and U.S. sources I read. American Horse (Oglala who claimed to have killed Fetterman) stated years after the battle that the bugler was one of the last to fall, standing around Wheatley and Fisher with their repeaters. It is reported that he killed several braves with his bugle after he ran out of bullets. Finn Burnett, a civilian at the post, also attested to the dignity given his corpse by the Sioux. The warriors probably viewed his use of the bugle as a type of coup. To have killed warriors with no apparent weapon was big medicine and worthy of their war honors.

Carrington, for receiving plenty of criticism for not being a COMBAT veteran, displays exemplary leadership at Kearney. He has a very competent understanding of indian tactics and combat prowess, and as such tries to instill caution in his senior and junior officers, who fresh out of the Civil War, are itching for fights. Had his officers heeded his words, this incident could have likely been avoided completely.

This was done in 1759 heading to Pittsburg in the French and Indian war, long established method of protecting their investment. so I bet they did here too. What went on in those places? Were they scared or had they turned it into a trading post/brothel ?

@Jefferson Thomas I know what you're referring to and I am unsure when block houses became obsolete. Fort Phil Kearny was a regular stockade with wooden walls; same with forts like Laramie and Bent. Block houses seem to be used in the east. I grew up in Texas, so our forts were open (Concho, Griffin, Davis etc.). Possibly because there was less threat of an assault because the terrain surrounding western forts were prairies. An interesting question. Sorry I don't have a solid answer for you.

Have you ever seen any of the reservations and have you heard people b*tch about the Native Americans being the only ones to be able to own the casinos in Oklahoma??? I have!!! It is really sad to see a once proud people treated the way they are and have been since their land was invaded by the people who think they are superior.

@@sandidavis820 So how did it work for Red Cloud and not for other Indians? Indians were a warrior based society that sought and thrived on conflict. That's why they were placed on reservations to redirect them to more peaceful ways. Some tribes got along (Red Cloud) and some didn't. When they left the reservation, they did so to follow the warrior way of raiding which led to murder and mayhem. Custer was at the LBH because the Sioux/Cheyenne were invading Crow land. Indian reservations are run by Indians and they don't have to live there. Indians get favor status, that's why Elizabeth Pocahontas Warren claimed to be Indian. Are you doing the same?

When they moved west, they overcame and killed the residents of THOSE lands, just as they had been killed and removed from northern Wisconsin. As the video said they had only been residents of that area for a few decades, so their "eternal claim" to that area is just so much BS!.
