[QUOTE="0311, post: 2344302, member: 26943"] The tribes had overwhelming firepower in this battle. One M16 in the hands of a skilled marksman could have driven off the hordes. In one account I've read, Custer might have gotten hit in the chest at a creek before the real fighting even began. Although his buckskin would have slowed the impetus of the round, he was nevertheless mortally wounded if this actually occurred, and could account in part for the rapid disintegration of his command and control. Eye witness accounts assert that a man wearing a buckskin jacket and a large hat took a chest wound and fell from his horse at the creek. He had been mounted next to a guy carrying a guidon. He was assisted back onto his saddle. No one can say for certain if this was Custer. [/QUOTE]
