Some time later.
An excellent diorama.
However….
– the correct quotation is "Here goes for a brevet or a coffin!"
Allegedly, the last words heard from Major Joel Elliot, 7th US Cavalry, in Custer's attack at the Washita on 27th November 1868, as he led a party downstream, disappearing into the pre-dawn darkness never to be seen again alive. |
