Only by not fighting a battle, as his orders specified. As he left General Terry's Montana Column on 22 June 1876, Terry told him not to go rushing in and to wait for the column to catch up if he found the enemy camp.

Custer replied "No I won't", which could have been agreeing with "don't go rushing in" or disobeying "wait for the column" - in the end he disobeyed and did not wait for the main body of troops.

On his own Custer had no chance of winning, no matter what he did.
