Why not to ask general custer for battle advice?
What’s ironic is how many people over the years have said Custer made a huge mistake dividing his forces even though it was not an uncommon strategy, Robert E. Lee as well as other Civil War generals did it. Something tells me that the survivors of his command were glad that he divided his forces, if he hadn’t they too would have been killed. The biggest problem at Little Bighorn was that the indians were better armed due to the superior weapons they were given by the U.S. government “to be used for hunting only” while Custer and his men had to use obsolete guns that routinely jammed.
