Post; Whoa Horsie.


An ironic history lesson, at custers last stand, all but one horse were slain. That horse escaped and found it way home. Heres the odd part, the horses name was the name of the tribe that attacked custer and the chief of that tribe was Crazy Horse, and Sitting Bull. I found the way this story came out hilariuos. post ypur thoughts

Don't double post, about face. (By the way, "moran" is spelled "m-o-r-o-n." )

heres a small on-line story about comanche, the horse that survived little big horn.

One thing though...comanche didnt go home, he was found on the battle site. They were going to put him down, due to his wounds, but the commanding officer of the outfit that found custer belayed the order, and had him returned to the post.

In those 17 years after little Big Horn..he was never ridden again.

Double posting is where you make the same post twice. I deleted your second one.

When a post is deleted, it subtracts the milbucks earned by the poster for making it, so it doesn't exactly penalize you, it puts you back where you were before you ever made the post.

When was the last time the US army used horses?
