A lot of historians overlook this dude. He directed the battle - the Lakota and affiliates including the Southern Cheyenne that held Reno's first charge and pushed his men back up into the trees.
Where they stayed.
Until long after Custer made his fatal mistake. Looping in from the east. Thought he would head them off just like he used to do when he was killing reservation Indians in Kansas and Oklahoma.
As history tells us, he hit the middle of a camp full of human beings. Custer figured they'd run. HA
They didn't.
