Just before 9/11/01 CSPAN was live from the Big Horn National site. It was
very interesting. I didn't realize there are so many other veterans buried
there from other wars. The have a native American conservator with the NPS.
a Ms. Deernose, I seem to remember. It was very interesting, considering the
last time I was past that area it was covered in ash from Mt. St. Helens
turning the 2 story high buffalo white, eerie from the Greyhound I was on
shortly after the explosion on my way to Seattle to work in Skagway, Alaska.

I have come across a number of questions now and then one in particular of a
further line of possible rifles in a hillside a rill, this researcher
thought and posted a photo on Compuserve in the early days of 2400 baud I
think. It may explain why Reno's troops were "dropped" while Custer
"watched" and remembering the archaeology done there I wonder if it was ever
explored? I imagine, as the first shot fired at Fort Sumpter was by a
student at his former artillery instructor, who were known to argue in
class, that General A. Custer, who was last I think in his class, and a
brilliant Union officer, may have had many enemies. We see alot of fictional
accounts of men riding on after the Civil War ala John Wayne. Perhaps a
fusillade set the whole thing in motion?

A similar scene to the battle, written in stone was photogrammetrically
recorded by Prometric Technologies, Inc. where I don't know. Sitting Bull
left for Moosejaw, Canada perhaps there as that company is based in Markham,
Ontario. I once, at a Choctaw Powwow near Philadelphia, Mississippi,
obtained the autograph of Iron Eyes Cody, who portrayed Sitting Bull in a
film of the same name. In the film he was promised a visit from the CIC -
the Commander in Chief - the US President, which I read was not that all
uncommon before or after the events of the Little Bighorn. My friends on
Long Island, NY were Blackfeet, their mother returned to the Lame Deer
Reservation.
