Don’t Ask People If They Want to See Your Little Bighorn…

Explore Montana’s Custer at Little Bighorn BuckleToday is the anniversary of General George Armstrong Custer’s Last Stand at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876.  Custer led the 7th Cavalry of the United States Army in an ill-fated battle against Chief Sitting Bull and Lakota and Cheyenne warriors near the Little Bighorn River in what is today southern Montana.

The buckle from ExploreMontana.com displays Custer, shooting Rambo-style with two double-action revolvers called Webley Bulldogs.  He is flanked by the Cavalry guidon variation of the American flag and the guidon of the 7th Cavalry.  To learn more, visit Friends of the Little Big Horn. 

History continues to re-evaluate this battle.  But no matter which side of the historical debate you choose, pay tribute to the man famous for failing.   Next time you screw up bad at work, think that maybe one day, you too could become a household name!
