It wasn't a war, but the last battle between the Native Americans and the United States Army. It happened at Little Big Horn River and known as the battle of the Greasy Grass by the Plains tribes in 1876. Most Americans refer to the battle as Little Big Horn and that General George Armstrong Custer was in command of American federal troops against Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne warriors under the command of Sitting Bull. It was midday on June 25, that Custer's 600 men entered the Big Horn Valley. They were attacked by 3,000 Native Americans and within an hour Custer and his men were all dead.
