There's probably no correct place to put these, since they apply to almost a 10 year span of the Indian Wars, so I'll start a new subject. Here's some markers of where some people fell during the Indian Wars or where they're buried. I'm sorry they didn't come out in a format where they just appeared on the screen, but look fine when you just click on the link:
Lt. Mc Intosh's marker: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/Indian%20war%20album/00940101.jpg
Isaiah Dorman: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/Indian%20war%20album/00940102.jpg
Lt. Daniels' marker at Crazy Woman Crossing. Died with the Templeton Wagon Train en route to establishing Ft. Phil Kearney: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/01710096.jpg
Fetterman Battle Marker: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/FredsFoxTour2007160.jpg
The infamous Fetterman Rocks, located inside the rock wall shown in the previous picture of the Fetterman Marker. Supposedly Fetterman and Brown were found here, and the grisly description of brains and entrails placed upon these rocks: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/FredsFoxTour2007456.jpg
Cairn located on the bluffs or high ground overlooking the site of the Indian village attacked by Reynolds on the Powder River. Reynolds lost four men, leaving one wounded man on the field to be tortured and killed: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/01710037.jpg
Graves of Dull Knife and Little Wolf in the Cheyenne cemetery in Lame Deer, Mt.: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/01710066.jpg
Lonesome Charley Reynolds' marker: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/00940112-1.jpg
I'm sorry, but this next one is impossible to make out, but Benny Hodgsen's marker is located across the river, just above my head. Taken at Reno Crossing on the Bird in Grounds' property: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/01710115-1.jpg
Marker for one of Custers' soldiers who died during the Black Hills Expedition. Taken at Custer's permanent camp in Custer, S.D.: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/MyLBHAconvention-2005119.jpg
Reburial of an urn containing remains of a soldier from Ft. Phil Kearney, I think in 2005. His remains were found near LSH when reconstruction was being done. He was buried next to the graves of Fetterman and Brown: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/BozemanTrailDays-LBHAseminarWyoming.jpg
I'll end these with pictures that anyone who has ever been to the LBH has seen:

And my favorite, taken at about 8:58 PM, just before they chased me out of the park: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/bubbabod/01450110.jpg
