Brummett Echohawk: Chaticks-Si-Chaticks Brummett Echohawk: Chaticks-si-chaticks by Kristin M. Youngbull A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved August 2012 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Donald Fixico, Co-Chair Peter Iverson, Co-Chair James Riding In ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2012 © 2012 Kristin M. Youngbull All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT There exists a significant overlap between American Indian history and American history, yet historians often treat the two separately. The intersection has grown over time, increasingly so in the 20th and 21st centuries. Over time a process of syncretism has taken place wherein American Indians have been able to take their tribal histories and heritage and merge them with the elements of the dominant culture as they see fit. Many American Indians have found that they are able to use their cultural heritage to educate others using mainstream methods. Brummett Echohawk, a Pawnee Indian from Pawnee, Oklahoma demonstrated the ways in which American Indian history merged with the larger American historical narrative through his knowledge of Pawnee history and heritage, American history, and his active participation in mainstream society throughout the 20th and into the 21st century. As a student in a government run Indian boarding school, a soldier of the famed 45th “Thunderbird” Infantry Division in World War II, and a successful artist, writer and public speaker, he offered a view of how one could employ syncretism to the advantage of all. Using an ethnohistorical approach to the subject allows a consideration of Brummett Echohawk as an individual, a representative of the Pawnee people, American Indians generally, and as an American. The ethnohistorical approach also helps elucidate the connection he made between success in life and truly fulfilling the Pawnee meaning behind their name Chaticks-si-chaticks, Men of men. Personal papers, published writings, as well as published and privately owned art (ranging from fine art in prestigious galleries to comic strips) provide i insight as to how Echohawk made clear the connections between the Pawnee (and American Indian) past and American history. Interviews with family members, friends, and Pawnee veterans also demonstrate the significance of his life for the Pawnee people and the United States, particularly in terms of the martial tradition. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF FIGURES ............................................................................................ iv INTRODUCTION ...............................................................................................1 CHAPTER 1 A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PAWNEE PEOPLE AND THEIR MARTIAL TRADITION .........................................................................9 2 A FAMILY TRADITION ................................................................67 3 TAKING ON THE MANTLE .......................................................105 4 AN AMERICAN SOLDIER, A PAWNEE WARRIOR ...............161 5 “LIFE IS SHORT, BUT ART IS LONG” ......................................224 6 MORE THAN AN ARTIST ..........................................................291 EPILOGUE ......................................................................................................332 SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY .......................................................................338 APPENDIX A IRB EXEMPTION ..........................................................................359 iii LIST OF FIGURES Figure Page 1.

Echohawk, warrior, artist, and public figure. Born in small-town Pawnee, Oklahoma, in 1922, he rose to prominence, acquiring an international reputation as an artist, writer, public speaker, and actor. He remained active in all of these professions until shortly before his death in 2006. His story hails back to intertribal conflict on the American plains and the eventual organization of the Pawnee Scouts by the U.S. Army from 1864 to 1877. The historical link to the Pawnee Scouts demonstrates a type of continuity for many Pawnee families, including the Echo Hawk family, as successive generations participated in military service. Brummett Echohawk served with distinction in the European Theater of World War II. The Army recognized his impressive service with the Bronze Star, Combat Infantry Badge, Army Commendation Medal, four battle stars, two Invasion Arrowheads, and Purple Heart with oak leaf cluster. His story draws attention to the social realities of generations of American Indians and informs the present because he used his influence to educate and inspire those in his home community and the world. The biography examines a life which reflected the history and values of the Pawnee (and other American Indian people), and the world in which they lived. This biography demonstrates the ways in which Echohawk took advantage of opportunities to use his Pawnee identity as a spring board rather than allowing discrimination to hold him back. He used his art, writing, public speaking, and acting as means to record history and to educate. 1 This study does not constitute a complete history of the Pawnee people. Neither does it provide a comprehensive history of the 45th Infantry Division, or even the Echo Hawk family. Rather, this biography reveals the ways in which culture and history influenced him, allowing him, in turn, to influence others. This work is designed to bring to light the contributions of an extraordinary individual who magnified what he believed to be important cultural values in all his undertakings. His Pawnee heritage, always a critical part of his identity, inspired his actions as a young soldier and as a veteran pursuing his dream career. His American

Aron, Chair This dissertation explores the social, cultural, and economic history of horse stealing among both American Indians and Euro Americans in Lincoln County, Nebraska from 1860 to 1890. It shows how American Indians and Euro-Americans stole from one another during the Plains Indian Wars and explains how a culture of theft prevailed throughout the region until the late-1870s. But as homesteaders flooded into Lincoln County during the 1870s and 1880s, they demanded that the state help protect their private property. These demands encouraged state building efforts in the region, which in turn drove horse stealing – and the thieves themselves – underground. However, when newspapers and local leaders questioned the efficacy of these efforts, citizens took extralegal steps to secure private property and augment, or subvert, the law.

  • Cache Valley
    C a c h e V a l l e y V i s i t o r s B u r e a u Cache Valley HERITAGE DRIVING TOUR CACHE VALLEY driving tour Cache Valley extends more than 50 miles into the states of Utah and Idaho. Beautifully nestled among the steep slopes of the Bear River and Wellsville mountain ranges, the valley averages 4500 feet in elevation and is four to twelve miles in width. The surrounding high mountains, clear streams and productive soil all combine to make it a valley rich in the blessings of nature. Cache Valley was the scene of many events important in the settling of the American West. It was here that mountain Indian tribes found ample hunting ground for game, that rugged mountain men splashed through streams in search of beaver, and where Mormon pioneers built new homes in the wilderness of the American frontier. For centuries before the mountain men and the Mormons came to Cache Valley, Native Americans hunted, fished and gathered seeds from the grass that was plentiful upon the valley floor. These Native Americans, the Northwestern Shoshone, named the valley Seuhubeogoi, “Willow River,” and established both winter and summer camps along the major rivers. As nomadic hunters and gatherers they followed centuries-old migratory patterns in search of food. Famous Northwestern Shoshone leaders were Sagwitch, Bear Hunter, Pocatello, Pahvants, and Sanpitch. Mountain men in search of beaver were the first white visitors to Cache Valley.

The Aim The aim of Operation Avalanche was to land a force on the Italian mainland near the port of Naples with the object of the seizure and development of that port as a base for further operations. Why Salerno? The allies had little hope of strategical surprise because the had air supremacy and would not give up such a valuable advantage and Naples was the only major Italian port on the Mediterranean coast that was within the range of Allied fighter aircraft at that time and the Allies would need such a port to be able to supply the army. To assault the heavily defended port directly invited disaster, they would have to land near Naples and build up a large enough force and supplies to assault the port. There were three possible beaches, Gaeta, Mondragone and Salerno. Gaeta was furthest being 80 km north of Naples and beyond single engine fighter cover. Mondragone is about 45 km north of Naples and is on the other side of the broad Volturno River; also the beach gradients were not well suited to landing craft.
