Custer's last stand!

[2badge_mango]

Have just watched docu-drama on BBC2. Lead up to the battle of the Little Big Horn. Excellent stuff. Good historical input. Points of view from both sides and from archaeological data. First of a series of three. Next week Billy the Kid.
Any other shitkicker fans out there who watched it?
What did you think?

Left me a little disappointed...I thought Custer had blonde hair not red :roll: .....I think I prefer the Hollywood version "They died with their boots on" :razz: For you western fans a look at this website may be of interest http://www.nationalcowboymuseum.org/ I went there whilst on a visit to Oklahoma/Colorado/Kansas/New Mexico/Texas back in 2001.
