7th at the 5th


As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.

I enjoy clever.

With some writers, I can not get beyond one anecdote without it Inspiring something more by God's Holy Spirit in the historical weave. That is the way it is with General Nelson Appleton Miles, as he is a treasure trove of information in things he cleverly states while praising those he points the finger and as he hints of intrigue in destroying people by the power elite in 19th century America.


I am going to produce a quote here from General Miles and challenge you to see something and explain what it is you are seeing, as it is one of the most vital forensic evidences in the Battle of the Little Big Horn.
I will also provide you with this exclusive, first time in the Lame Cherry in matter anti matter hints, that General Miles repeatedly in his memoirs REFUSED to term the Little Big Horn as a "massacre".
If the entire slaughter of a command was not a massacre, then exactly what was it, that so vehemently moved Nelson Miles to deny what it was being stated as?

""Horrible." The journals announced that a good part of General Custer's command of the Seventh Cavalry had been annihilated on the Little Big Horn in Montana. Custer's command was very popular with the citizens of that region. The news of this massacre, as it was called, created intense excitement and sympathy."

Miles, Nelson Appleton, 1839-1925.



The massacre as it was being called in the press, but not as General Miles defined it, was apparently something more, and again if a mass of people is savagely slaughtered in combat, it is a massacre, unless of course other forces set them up to be mass assassinated. Then it is murder.

This though is your quote to see if you can see something concerning the much later battle with the Nez Perce as it reveals a great deal of the Little Big Horn.


Quote:

"Our success was not without serious loss. Captain Hale and Lieutenant Biddle, with twenty soldiers, were killed; Captains Moylan and Godfrey, Lieutenant Romeyn, and Assistant Adjutant-General Baird and twenty-eight soldiers were wounded. In the charge Captain Carter had thirty-five per cent, of his company placed hors de combat.

The Indians lost their veteran and principal chief, Looking Glass, and four other chiefs and twenty-six warriors were killed, while forty-six warriors were wounded in the combat. Our band of thirty Indian allies, Sioux and Chey-ennes, had rendered valuable service and fought bravely.
'' Hump'' dashed into the Nez Perces line and killed two with his own hands, and was severely wounded. After the surrender I allowed each to select five captured ponies, and gave them permission to recurn to the cantonment on the Yellowstone."

I will not protract this out, as the majority will have missed it and the minority will not know what they have seen, as I am the one asking the questions, and when one asks the questions, one always has the upper hand.

It is General Miles mention of Captain Moylan and Godfrey in this battle in being wounded.

In context of this, General Miles was known to be in command of the 5th Infantry at a cantonment on the Rosebud in Montana. That statement should now send off the warning bells in this as he was operating northwest in the Judith River basin in this fighting. The warning bells are in this that Captain Moylan and Captain Godfrey were 7th Cavalry stationed at Fort Abraham Lincoln.

What were two 7th Officers out fighting Nez Perce and not Sioux, with the 5th Infantry?

I will give you the hint in this as I have a letter from Captain Godfrey in which he defines Major Marcos Reno a coward.

Let us return to June 25th, 1876, in the Battle of the Little Big Horn. The Custer command was wiped out in the closest intimates. Certain other Officers though like Weir, Moylan and Godfrey were stuck under the commands of Reno and Benteen. Certain of them raised hell and rode off to try and find General Custer as had been ordered.

Now let us put you into the boots and saddles of these Officers who knew at the very least that a coward in Reno and a sociopath in Benteen, had just been rewarded for abandoning several hundred of your compatriots to be murdered by the Sioux and Cheyenne.
Would you want to continue serving under them? Would you wonder if the next battle came, if you would be "abandoned" on the field too? Would you look around perhaps to find an Officer who you could serve under who was not homicidal?

The answer to the above would be yes to all questions, and when Nelson Miles appeared in the aftermath of June 1876, a known friend of the Custers and the 7th Cavalry, who was victorious in whipping the Sioux and Cheyenne in the winter campaign, which commanding General Alfred Terry said could not be accomplished as the General Crooke division had failed the previous winter, would you not ask to be transferred to serve with a George Custer protector, instead of his murderers?

The connecting of dots in the forensic psychology point exactly to this conclusion. Nelson Miles was in command of Infantry in his first campaign. The Nez Perce situation had mounted Infantry on Indian ponies, and in the midst of this are two 7th Cavalry Officers. The conclusion is Moylan and Godfrey both transferred out to the 5th Infantry as it was dangerous for them and unpleasant to be in a command which was rewarded by the Grant regime for murdering their own.

"The infantry, mounted on captured Indian ponies, having galloped up close to the Indian camp, threw themselves on the ground and opened a sharp fire, their ponies standing quietly behind the line, some of them nibbling grass, undisturbed by the noise and tumult of the battle or their close presence to an Indian camp, which often terrified our Eastern horses. Several were shot in this position, to the great grief of the soldiers, who had become very fond of them."

Nelson Miles had in his command, two of the eye witnesses of the Little Big Horn, who in the Godfrey case blamed Reno for it as Captain Godfrey knew what took place. This is one of the reasons that Nelson Miles knew intimately what had taken place at the Little Big Horn.
George Custer and Elizabeth were his friends. He was more than curious of the events, and took great pains in interviews to learn every detail of this event. It is why Moylan and Godfrey sought his command out to serve under him.
Bluntly put, there were two commands in the US military who were elite. The Cavalry was the 7th under George Custer and the Infantry was the 5th under Nelson Miles. If one desired not be among drunks, gamblers and perverts, you applied for station with them. If debauchery was what you enjoyed, then you stayed in the other commands.

The troubling part in this in examining this, is it appears that Moylan and Godfrey were still perhaps trying to undo the murder at the Little Big Horn in exposing themselves in combat. It is a point that Officers had to do this, but in both of them being hit, it means they were moved beyond just service and were still exorcising the day of June 25th.

There are many pieces to the Little Big Horn in evidence, and the finding of Moylan and Godfrey serving under Nelson Miles is extremely telling.
The 7th was an absolute shambles after George Custer and his command were mass murdered. Reno was completely unbalanced in sexually stalking a married woman at Fort Abraham Lincoln and face court martial. Benteen refused to be a part of it in his sociopathy, and that kind of insanity could only harm an officer to death and never advance a career.

General Alfred Terry was a desk general, and a complete fool as much as General Crooke in the Platte Department. They both wasted the Summer of 76 in punishing the Indians and were content to sit in camp allowing terrorists to harm Americans in the West.
The Platte Department almost killed all their men in the winter of 75, sending them out into Arctic cold without winter clothing.

There were only two commands of any worth in this period, and they were Colonel Nelson Miles and Colonel Richard Irving Dodge. Both Infantry, both bringing the "walking heaps" as the Indians called the boys in blue dressed now in buffalo hide coats in the 60 below zero weather in bringing warfare to terrorists in the winter.

I deem the Moylan and Godfrey appearance in the 5th Infantry telling, as there was great rivalry between Cavalry and Infantry, yet this is where Custer's Cavalry sought refuge.

Nelson Miles was a brilliant commander whether against Confederates, Indian terrorists or Spanish Soldiers. He trained his men to be fit and ready, and with Indian terrorists, he made certain he took the fight to them, kept them at distance, and then never quit worrying them hard.
This relentless pursuit is what broke the Indian terrorists, as murder and rapine was not so attractive, when Nelson Miles was administering justice to the criminals.

So two loyal Custer Officers transferred from the 7th Cavalry apparently into the 5th Infantry after the Little Big Horn. That speaks volumes in the conspiracy and cover up of June 25th, 1876.

Another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
