And everyone WONDERS why we Native Americans shake our heads in amazement? Custer was a braggard who hated Indians, wanted to continue to glorify himself by wiping us off the face of the earth .. and took how many men with him?

PLEASE! Yes, I will agree this flag represents a PART of America's history. But let us NOT glorify COLONEL CUSTER. He was made a Brevet General during the Civil War. After the War, his rank returned to Colonel. Custer's wife, Libby, is the sole reason we even remember him today. She made 'his memory' her life's work.

Frankly, if he were a leader among my people, Mohawks, I would hang my head in shame! Just remember the US Cavalry massacred woman and children - even babies. Think hard about who you give praise and honor to.
