Little Bighorn Battlefield

In my travels around the world, I've visited many historic battlefields. No where have I had an experience as educational and moving as when I visited this site. The National Park Service has reserved this battlefield in such a way that you can visit the key points in the battle, see where it started, how it developed throughout the day, and get a feel for what the soldiers and Indians were seeing and thinking. It's clear that Custer should have and could have avoided the disaster, having been warned repeatedly by his Crow scouts of the ever increasing mass of Indians headed to the Indian encampment on the river. It would take too long to go over the battle and many have written volumes on the subject. Suffice it to say, like Gettysburg, the Little Bighorn Battlefield is a must see for those interested in American history
