Hello everyone,

I need everyone's help to find the most accurate battle orders possible for the beloved Battle of Rosebud Creek occurred June 17, 1876, in the Montana Territory between the United States Army and its Crow and Shoshoni allies against a force of the Lakota and Northern Cheyennes during the Great Sioux War of 1876.

(companies by companies if possible for the US Army)

The Wickipedia page for this battle seems to have some useful info along the lines required. You might start there.

Fourth Infantry F Company 42 officers, NCOs and other ranks.

Second Cavalry E Company 55 officers, NCOs and other ranks. Second Cavalry I Company 43 officers, NCOs and other ranks. Third Cavalry A Company 57 officers, NCOs and other ranks. Third Cavalry B Company 65 officers, NCOs and other ranks. Third Cavalry C Company 58 officers, NCOs and other ranks Third Cavalry D Company 46 officers, NCOs and other ranks. Third Cavalry E Company 61 officers, NCOs and other ranks. Third Cavalry F Company 53 officers, NCOs and other ranks. Third Cavalry G Company 56 officers, NCOs and other ranks.

Sorry for the unreadable slurry. I tried to format it but the formatting didn't stick.

@ Wackmole9 and @ jurgenation :
Thank you for your help.

@Artilleryman :
Thank you I read this article ten billion!

@Nick Stern :
It does not matter for the unreadable slurry that I am when even managed to decipher, thank you because you understood the kind of things that I search for vital ways to mount my armies.

Why , only about an hour or so away ??? From where ?

It's about an hour away from Sheridan, Wyoming and perhaps a bit more from Billings, Montana.
