I like visiting historic sites and I find it amusing when I revisit years later and find the narrative has changed. At one time there was a Custer Battlefield National Monument. Now it's the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. fwiw that effete bastard George HW Bush signed that law. Monuments and markers have been added for the Indians. I suppose that's fitting since they won. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Little_Bighorn_Battlefield_National_Monument#/media/File:CheyenneStone.JPG I'm not sure they sent the best and brightest to fight the Indian Wars. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetterman_Fight
