Does anyone know that Custer almost missed the Little Big Horn Campaign. Not long before the campaign Custer went before congress and testified about corruption, without the approval of his superiors, and he said some bad things about president Grant's brother. Which pisssed Grant off. So he ordered General Sheridan to relieve Custer of command.
The only reason Custer was in command, was because he pleaded with his immediate superior General Alfred Terry. So, what if Custer wasn't able to regain command of the 7th Calvary? Would he still have an army career or would it be ruined because he was relieved of command? Also, would the 7th Calvary still be slaughtered? Would Reno, or Benteen make the same mistake as Custer? What do you think?
