Best Answer

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.

US General George A. Custer died in an Native American ambush in 1876. Although many people call this the Battle of Little Bighorn, it was a raid not a battle. Several thousand Natives ambushed the 266 or so army troops. It was not a battle

Gen Custer fought in the Battle of the Little Big Horn. He didn't wait for two other Army troops and thought he could win. But there were many more Native Americans than soldiers in his troop. This is also called Custer's Last Stand.
