The leader of the troops at the Battle of Washita was Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer. The battle took place on November 27, 1868, when Custer and his 7th Cavalry attacked a Cheyenne village along the Washita River in present-day Oklahoma. This engagement aimed to suppress Native American resistance during the Indian Wars. Custer's forces achieved a decisive victory, but the battle is often criticized for its brutality against civilians.
