DucemusJohn Gibbon visited Custer's Battleground on June 28th in company with Alfred H. Terry after visiting the timber site where Reno's command held led horses. Several animals lay dead there. Gibbon and Reno then crossed Little Bighorn river at that place and moved to the battleground along the east side of the river. This is given by Gibbon in his testimony to the RCoI. Kuhlman indicates such a crossing place (good ford) in his diagram of Reno's fight. Legend into history. Instead of tearing off down river to get on the bluffs, there was a ford in the timber. Where? Behind you..... where a platoon of Company G were deployed and left behind in the........ charge! Good read is old Kuhlman. Absolute piffle of course. His Custer fight ends at Calhoun Hill with a skirmish line facing west! People using Gibbons journey to the battleground to locate Mark Kellogg as lying on terrain down near the so called D various fords, blow immense bubbles and talk complete rubbish.

In order for any person, to make sense of where Gibbon crossed the river on 29th June, 1876, it is neccesary to know from where the journey began. That was Montana Column's camp in Little Bighorn valley. Those and anyone, unable to furnish that location is dealing French tripe in its feebly futile English language sense related to any analyses of Gibbon's account of his journeys. Where were Terry and Gibbon camped on the morning of 29th June, 1876? If'n you don't know, then you don't know and have not studied the problem properly or at all, at all, or have found Nutsford. Gibbon's Ford. Sioux Ford. Nutsford. Which is it. Shall we ask Two Moons? Attachments:
