George Armstrong Custer was the Boy General of the Civil War. A West Point Cadet when the war began, he was a dashing and flamboyant Major General when the war ended. Reverted back to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, he served in the Indian Wars with a checkered record. He was doubtless a man of great personal courage, a poor tactician, and became an American Hero when he lost his command to the Sioux, Cheyenne and Arapahoe at the Battle of Little Big Horn. Yellow Hair, the Golden Boy General died with much of his US 7th Cavalry on 25 June 1876.
