Blog Mentioning Custer

[Diane Merkel]

I came across a blog entry that you all may wish to read and comment upon. I commented, but the moderator hasn't posted it yet. His basic point is that Custer's vanity led to his defeat. If it were that simple, we wouldn't be here talking about him!

Custer "didn't wait for the cavalry to join him"? He was the cavalry!

Interesting that he hasn't posted my comment after almost three days. I wasn't rude or confrontational. I just said that the reasons for Custer's defeat were more complex and asked who the ACE guy's ancestor was.

I won't waste my time on that guy ever again. . . . I guess I'll stick to Tom Goodrich's blog: wildwestblogcom.blogspot.com . Tom appreciates his audience!
