I agree with Charlie. Who do we refer to as Americans in this case? If you are asking in regards to the Native American, or American Indian side, the answer is a resounding yes! Custer did not wait for his reinforcements and only succeeded in slaughtering his men. He took approximately 300 men, if memory serves serves - fewer- up against an encampment that is estimated to have ranged between 5-10,000. With that mAny inhabitants, the number of young and able bodied men would have greatly outnumbered Custer's band of men. When I was at the battlefield last, I believe the report reflected that the anger of those in camp was evident in the damage done as even some women and elders came out of the camp to inflict harm to Custer and his men.
