General Custer was defeated at the Battle of the Little Big Horn. It used to be called Custer's Last Stand by the whites and the Battle of the Greasy Grass by the Indians. Custer defied orders to just observe the Indians and instead, in his arrogance ignored the scouts advice of the sheer numbers of Indians and attacked the encampment. It was not just the Sioux, however, but the Cheyenne, Arapaho and a few other tribes who defeated him.
Battle of the Little Bighorn in June 1876 between a squadron of the 7th US Cav and the Sioux nation. Not to be confused with the film starring Mel Gibson's (as LTC Moore) "We Were Soldiers..." also about a big battle involving the 7th US Cav in 1965 in South Vietnam.
Note: LTC Custer's command group, including Custer (but not his whole regiment) were cleaned out in the 1876 fight. Moore's command group and many of his men survived the 1965 battle.

George Armstrong Custer was killed in the Battle of the Little Bighorn July 25-26, 1876 in Montana.The name of the battle is the Little Big Horn, and is also the name of the place it took place. Also Custer and his men were not massacred they went looking for a fight and got one. It was a military blunder on Custer's behalf he was too overly confident that he could defeat the Sioux.
Yes he did defeat General Cluster at the battle of wounded knee
The young cavalry officer who the Souix defeated in battle was Lieutenant Colonel Custer at the Battle of the Little Big Horn.
In 1876, the Battle of the Little Big Horn took place. Back then it was referred to as Custer's Last Stand by the Americans. The Indians called it the Battle of the Greasy Grass. The Cheyenne, Sioux, Arapaho and a few others from other tribes were camped out. General George Custer was given orders just to scope them out but not to engage the Indian. However, in his arrogance, Custer believed he could not only engage them but kill and defeat all the "savages". Custer was outnumbered and grossly underestimated the warriors' skills and was defeated. It is still debated whether he was killed by a native or took his own life.
The Battle of Fredericksburg was the worst defeat for the Union Army. It was General Ambrose Burnside's fault.
General Lee defeated Pope in the Second Battle of Bull Run.
