| Centurion | Post; Funny quote attributed to Custer"Where did all those Indians come from!?!" I guess this is why he was last in his Tactics class at West Point.

| The fire is everything...  |  Heard that one before, but I don't think it's an actual quote by Custer. Just a funny line someone has attributed to him. |

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Dead Last in his class... Oh well, when you consider George Pickett came out first in that class I wouldn't consider it one of the Point's "stronger classes"

| Guest | Post; More on CusterActually I think you meant George McClellan, who was #2 in his West Point Class. George Pickett was at the bottom of his class, but McClellan wasn't all that much of a prize as #2. |
