Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer and his
elite 7th Cavalry regiment,
under a hail
of arrows, urge their tired
horses toward
"Last Stand Hill".
Custer spurs
his trusted mount "Vic"
forward,
as he fires a round from
his British Bulldog
revolver into the surging
tide of Sioux and Cheyenne warriors.

CUSTER'S LAST STAND
It is approximately 4:45 pm on Sunday, June
25, 1876. On the high ground above the Little
Big Horn River is Montana Territory, the
final scene of a drama that has been unfolding
since early that morning is about to be played
out. Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong
Custer and some eighty men of Companies C,
E, F, I, and L of the Seventh U.S. Cavalry
are advancing into history as part of "Custer's
Last Ride."
7th CAVALRY MASSACRED BY INDIAN BRAVES
Here, Custer stops to fire towards
the advancing
Native Americans whose arrows
are already
starting to take their toll.
Lieutenant W.W.
Cooke, with his distinctive whiskers,
is
in the group to the right of
Custer, and
Sergeant Robert Hughes, who is
carrying Custer's
personal guidon, follows him.
The men remain
fairly calm against the indians,
although
one of the guidon bearers has
just been hit.
Custer's mount, Vic, is beginning
to sense
the fear that will soon overtake
the troopers.
The men taking part in "Custer's
Last
Ride" were doomed, but they
became a
part of one of the most enduring
legends
of the West-Custer's Last Stand.
