Can you supply the URL that has this photo? Or post the photo?
The Remington painting is more or less fictional, it was for promotional purposes.
The Indian side, has Custer was shot twice, one shot, Custer went to his knees, the other to the head, and he fell backwards. General Terry said, in his field report that he was shot in the side and once in the temple.
White Bull and other had made the same claim. I don’t recall the Cheyenne story, so I don’t know. When time permits, I go through the files and see if I have anything on the Cheyenne claim.
Footnote, I discovered today, has a large file on Custer and several photo’s. Much of it comes from the National Archives. Footnote is worth the free.
Happy Trails!
