Updating snafu with links...... Links good
Further information on this action and that at Honsinger Bluff, is in this book which includes Custer's report for August 1873 link and also in an article about the fighting on the Yellowstone, which was published in July 1876 believe it or not, by The Galaxy Magazine. I don't have a link at the moment but have a copy in pdf somewhere deep in Gertie's bowels. This stuff helps get into the tactics employed by 7th Cavalry, which together with Washita study, offer a real insight of the military tactics in irregular warfare. Find the camps and destroy them.
