MEMORIALS
The Winners Get Their Due
</hdr><body>
<p> For more than a century, the Custer Battlefield National
Monument in southeastern Montana has served as a memorial to the
"Last Stand," in which Lieut. Colonel George Armstrong Custer
and more than 250 men of the 7th U.S. Cavalry met their death
in a fierce battle with Sioux and Cheyenne warriors on June 25,
1876. Last week Congress approved a bill to rename the park the
Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. The bill would
also create an Indian memorial there, in recognition that
Native Americans too fought and died in the clash, which was
their last major victory against the U.S. Army.
