MacKay, 4000 l~ssachusetts Ave., N.N., Washington, D.C. 7 by F. yon Allendorfer On June 25, 1876 the Sioux Indian Nation under SITTING BULL and RAIN-IN-THE.FACE massacred five troops of the 7th United States Cavalry under the command of Colonel GEORGE AR~TRONG CUSTER at a little known place in Montana called LITTLE BIG HORN. The other troops of the 7th, under the command of ~jor ~tRCUS RENO made a brave stand and it is to these men that the ~,~DALS OF HONOR were awarded for various deeds of outstanding bravery. The complete remainder of this group were recommended for the award but the final decision trimmed the list do~,~ to 26 re- cipients. They are as follows: : BANCROFT, Neil HUTCHINSON, Rufus BRANT, Abram MECHLIN, Henry CALLAN, Thomas ~dRRAY, Thomas CRISh~LL, Benjamin PYM, James CUNN!NGHAM, Charles ROY, Stanislaus DEETLINE, Frederick SCOTT, George EVA~L~S , William STEV~{S, Thomas W. GEIGER, George STEWART, Ben ~ amin GOLDEN, T.N. THOMPSON, Peter HANLEY, Richard TOLAN, Frank IDhRRIS, David W. VOIT, Otto }~RRIS, William ~’.rELCH, Charles H. HOLDEN, Henry WINDOLPH, Charles Eighteen of the ~DAL OF HONOR winners were Native born, Ireland produced three; Germany two; France, England and Scotland one each making a total of twenty’ six. This writer laaows where tkree of the medals are de- posited today and would welcome correspondence as to the whereabouts of the other twenty-three; whether they re- pose in private or public collections. 8 The medals that were issued to CY~&RLES WI~LOL~{ and JAMES PYM can be seen in the mnseum maintained by the United States Department of the Interior at the battleground of the ~ITTLE BIG HORN. ~qe official nmme is the "CUSTER BATTLEFIELD NATIONAL MONUmeNT AT CROW AGENCY, ~NTANA". In addition the museum exhib- its medals which were won by members of the 7th U.S. Cavalry dating from the Indian Campaigns to the Korean Campaign. The third medal which this writer knows about is the one awarded to NElL BANCROFT. It lies in the dusty files of the National Archives as an unclaimed award alon~ with the yellowing records of this soldier. The medal was issued and reached the 7th Cavalry regi- ment on October ~, 1878, BANCROFT had completed his five-year enlistment and for al! historical purposes dropped from the pa~es of history. No one ever came forward to claim the medal and today it reposes, and shall probably so do for a long time, in the National Archives in Washington, D. C. It is interesting to note that in the massacre of the LITTLE BIG HOP~, the Generals brother, Captain THOMAS CUSTER, was also killed. He was a two-time win- ner of the$~DAL OF HONOR. An epic of American history at its finest; and where are the rest of those medals today? -oOo-- EDITORS NOTE : : According to the Army ~DAL OF HONOR publication of the U.S. Government, 20 were issued October 5, 1878; 2 issued December 2, 1876, and one on October 15, 1878, December 21, 1895 and October 24, 18.069 date of i~sue on one unl~qo- R.E.~. 9 .

  • Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery Lodge
    HISTORIC AMERICAN LANDSCAPES SURVEY FORT LEAVENWORTH NATIONAL CEMETERY, LODGE HALS No. KS-1-A Location: 395 Biddle Boulevard, Leavenworth, Leavenworth County, Kansas. The coordinates for the Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery, Lodge are 94.888227 W and 39.275444 N, and they were obtained in August 2012 with, it is assumed, NAD 1983. There is no restriction on the release of the locational data to the public. Present Owner: National Cemetery Administration, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Prior to 1988, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs was known as the Veterans Administration. The Veterans Administration took over management of Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery from the U.S. Army in 1973 (Public Law 93-43). Date: 1904-05. Builder/Contractor: Unknown. Description: In 1905, the two-story, brick lodge replaced the nineteenth-century, Second Empire style stone lodge; it kept the L-shaped floor plan but raised the second floor – eliminating the mansard – and covered the whole with hipped roofs. A small, triple window dormer was cut into the roof on the southeast front elevation. The foundations of the lodge were stone and concrete and the roof was initially covered in slate. The window lintels and sills appear in early twentieth- century photographs to be made of stone, and the double-hung sash glazed with one-over-one lights. The chimneystack was constructed of brick and is visible above the roofline. There were twenty-six screens and twenty-three window shades in the building. Maintenance ledgers from the Veterans Administration for the cemetery supplied the 1905 construction date for the present lodge, and the ledgers listed a series of repairs undertaken in the 1920s to 1960s.

Dawson III The comparative experiences of the nineteenth-century British and American Army officer’s wives add a central dimension to studies of empire. Sharing their husbands’ sense of duty and mission, these women transferred, adopted, and adapted national values and customs, to fashion a new imperial sociability, influencing the course of empire by cutting across and restructuring gender, class, and racial borders. Stationed at isolated stations in British India and the American West, many officers’ wives experienced homesickness and disorientation.

  • Custer Genealogies
    CUSTER GENEALOGIES Compiled & Printed By Milo Custer Bloomington, Illinois 1944 Editors of New Edition John M. Carroll W. Donald Horn Guidon Press P.O. Box 44 Bryan, Texas 77801 INTRODUCTION I remember an old adage from my history teaching days which went: "You don't know who you are until you know who you were, and you don't know where you're going until you know where you've been." Its value as an historical statement is unchallenged; to understand any character in history it is necessary to know all about his family's genealogy. This has never been more true than for General George Armstrong Custer. The General has been treated variously in the media as a true folk hero, a self-serving egoist, a military genius, a military fool, an ambitious man, a man satisfied with his sta­ tion in life and his accomplishments, and a man who was either a womanizer or a faithful husband. Whichever attitude prevailed was the one which was held by the viewer. The General may have been all of those; he may have been none of these. Yet, the inconsistency of public opinion proved one fact: General Custer was a public figure who was destined to become one of the most controversial men in American history. The fact that he had enemies and detractors is incon­ trovertible. No successful man can achieve what he did in such a short period of time without having created some enemies. That can also account for a bit of egotism in the man. It has been said that a person can determine the pace and degree of fame he has achieved by turning around and counting the number of people shaking their fists at him.

  • Heroes of Native Resistance
    Fight the Power: Heroes of Native Resistance By Vincent Schilling There were many Native resistance fighters from the 1500s to the 1800s who made a name for themselves during our country’s volatile history. Here’s a guide to some of the more notable. Dragging Canoe Dragging Canoe, born around 1738, was a Cherokee war chief. The first battle he fought in was during the Anglo-Cherokee War (1759-1761), and that earned him the reputation of being a strong opponent against encroachment. He then led the Cherokee against white settlers in North Carolina with Abraham of Chilowee in 1776. During the American Revolution his forces were often joined by Upper Muskogee, Chickasaw, Shawnee, Indians from other nations, British Loyalists, French and Spanish agents. He was a prominent war leader during the Chickamauga Wars (1776-1794). He died in 1792 after an all night celebration. Dragging Canoe was a prominent Cherokee war chief. Mike Smith Tecumseh Tecumseh, born in 1768, was a Shawnee leader who not only resisted, he tried to unite all Native Americans so they could defend themselves against the growing United States. He and his warriors fought well. During the Siege of Detroit they joined the British and Tecumseh had his warriors parade out from the woods, circle back and come out again from another area, making it look like there were more warriors. The other side surrendered. Tecumseh was killed in 1813 during the Battle of the Thames, though the circumstances of his death are murky. Tecumseh, a Shawnee leader, tried to united all Natives against the growing United States.

Th e Corinthian: The Journal of Student Research at GC&SU Archaeology and the Changing View of Custer's Last Stand Nick Reonas Perhaps no event in the course of American history has gen­ erated as much controversy and conjecture as the battle of the Little Bighorn. The battle was of little national significance, as the Native Americans were eventually slaughtered or forced onto reservations, but the mythical status of George Armstrong Custer was indelibly imprinted on the American psyche by this tragic affair. Today the popular conceptions of the battle are being dramatically altered by new archaeological methods. With these novel techniques of inves­ tigation, a more accurate picture of the events of that hot Montana Sunday so long ago is finally being painted. The buffalo grass and the dry dusty ridges and ravines along the Little Bighorn River are slowly revealing the secrets of a battle that shocked a nation and still captivates it to this day.
