Joyce welcome to the gang.
Comanche was the horse that was ridden by Captain Myles Keogh of the 7th Cavalry under George Armstrong Custer.
Comanche was the only survivor at the Battle of the Little Big Horn. All of the U.S. troops were killed and 2 days after the battle Comanche was found badly wounded by the soldiers in the recovery operation. He was then transported back to Fort Lincoln and nursed back to health.
On April 10, 1878 he was retired by Colonel Samuel D. Sturgis under General Order number 7
Under this order as the only survivor of the Battle of the Little Big Horn he was to be never ridden again as he was the symbol and I quote “of the desperate struggle against overwhelming numbers of the hopeless conflict and the heroic manner in which all went down on that fatal day “
He was never to be ridden nor put to work again and upon all occasions of mounted regimental formation, Comanche, saddled and bridled and draped in mourning led by a mounted trooper of Company 1, will be paraded with the regiment.
Comanche was 21 years old and was found in a ravine where he had crawled to die. He had four wounds back of his fore shoulder one through his hoof and one in each hind leg. He died at age 29 on November 7 1891 and was given a full military funeral.
Thanks again Joyce and you as well Don.
God Bless all!
Actually, a lot of soldiers survived the battle. Mostly those who booked it out on their horses before they got totally surrounded. Which some could call cowardly, but honestly they weren't trying to setup for battle there anyways, and all of them were trying to escape so really it's just natural. Cause I'm also pretty sure Custard had split up his forces, so you had whole groups that weren't at those exact positions, but don't get me wrong, still fought.
Cliff I really appreciate mate. What a story. What an incredible Soldier that horse was. I love the fact this story was turned into a song
Thank you ! I was wondering what happened to Comanche.
@@TKDragon75 a lot of Sioux warriors survived :)
Great tribute to the horse "Comanche", for his bravery at the battle of Little Big Horn.
Love Johnny Horton.
So do I
Always, this brings tears, and not for the 7th Cavalry or Custer! Just the horse and the brave Natives!
I agree
For all, I care Custer's memory can go due in a ditch. If I was there in the 1800's I would have been fighting against the US soldiers alongside the Native Americans, as I am part native myself.
You gotta do Johnny Horton’s “Johnny Reb” about the southern soldier. As a proud descendent of many confederate soldiers that one always brings a tear to my eye. You’ll love it!
I always find a lump in my throat when he sings “you saw the young boys as they began to fall, you had tears in your eyes, because you couldn’t help them all”.
Comanche was a mixed-breed horse who survived George Armstrong Custer's detachment of the United States 7th Cavalry at the Battle of the Little Bighorn (June 25, 1876).
90% of our people died from europian diseases, we are still fighting to get treaties honored
Listen to Johnny singing Jim Bridger and my Favorite North to Alaska about the gold rush.
This was my favorite song as a kid, being horse crazy. I see Cliff has posted the history, so I won't reiterate. 🐎🐴🐎
Johnny Horton had a talent of telling history in music.
Great choice! I've always loved this one by the legendary Johnny Horton. Much appreciation for your appreciation of this great heritage.
Thank you I'm native American very proud yes look into the battle of big horn blast Custer
If you want to see the Little Bighorn, come to Montana and I will put you up. Then I will take you to the monument. There are stone markers where each soldier fell. All are white except for Custer's which is black. There is a museum with many artifacts including Custers buckskin uniforms a d guns.
I have been there and seen that , it is so humbling and sad to see the way the way the whites treated the Native Americans , I’m only part native. It was so sad and somber of a place all I could do is just look around in awe and cry for all of the natives who lost their lives.
I had a horse named Comanche because of this song. Plus, my Blackfoot wife loved it.
since this song came out, i cried when I heard it as a little farm girl. Im 68 now and it still makes me cry... Johnny Horton was a fabulous singer...
There is a horse that served in WW2 that was so astounding to nearly be magical. As I recall, he lived to retire.
I vaguely remember that horse. I don't remember the exact story just remember thinking what hasn't that horse survived?".
I live near Wood Mountain SK where the Sioux came up under Sitting Bull. Some eventually went back to the States, some stayed and descendants remain there. It was tragic all around.
Johnny sang one of the best love lost songs I ever heard. "whispering pines" , check it out. Waszo.
another johnny horton song that somewhat ties in with this - general custer -is jim bridger - and a true story to boot - another johnny freedom
Damn if this song doesn't always bring a tear to my eye
North to Alaska was a pretty good song.
and movie
Love the song and movie
Loved this song! Thank you for reacting to it!🎊🎉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✌🏻😊
I haven’t heard that song in years.
I grew up listening to this song by the late Johnny Horton. Walt Disney did a movie about this called 'Tonka, Comanche The Brave Horse'.....Gotta love the arrangement of the music which sounds like horse hooves and heart beats....Perfect!...A suggestion: Have a listen to The Battle of New Orleans by JH...
Johnny Horton...such a great talent!!! Where was the (a) horse??? They could've had at least one picture of one. Some animals r very talented. Thank u for playing this request. I remember hearing this song when I was a teenager. I won't say what year that was. Lol! I don't think this certain horse was real but many of them did die in battle so kudos to them all. ❤
@@TXplowgirl Well that's neat. Thank you for the info. I'm glad he was honored. ❤
WOW I've never heard of this one before! Thanks for sharing this one!
You really need to check out Pow Wow Dances and Pow Wow singing. It's such an amazing and beautiful tradition.
You'd like the true story of Sgt Reckless. Race track to battlefield to Marine.
The Dons Channel would get a kick out of reviewing this Sgt. Reckless video, ruclips.net/video/w3PekI7QzcE/видео.html
Very appreciative of your takes on American nostalgia. Thank you for your service.
I am an American Indian, I had family who were there, my Grandfather was six years old at this time, the worriers sent the women and children to the river for safety, my grandfather passed at age 96 he told us stories of the old days…..so we know predijuce and oppression.
Thank you very much Rose for your story 😁
@@TheDonsChannelyou welcome
Correct my mother loved this song
Battle of the Little Big Horn led by Custer. The Indian used to call him woman killer or long hair. Puffed up colonel with a big ego!!!
Custer was trying to use the same tactics that he had used at the Battle of the Washita river in 1868, namely a surprise attack in which he charges into the village capturing as many women and children as possible, and then using those hostages to force the warriors to capitulate. At Washita the forces under Custer killed (the numbers vary) 50 or more native Americans, mostly women and children. The same tactics were used by other military commanders at the Battle of the North Fork. I agree 100 percent with your assessment of Custer.
@@stevedietrich8936 what really gets my goat is that the NATIVE AMERICAN people gave him respect after he died. I remember from history classes that poor Custer died. When I married a Native American, I learned the truth. I truly wanted to dig him up and slap him😢 Just my opinion 🤣
@@dixiegeorge9665 Truth is this. Custer was a great soldier! Because of White men like him and me, you have civilization and all the comforts that go along with it. If you don't like it then go live in a buffalo skin tepee and give up modern conveniences. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that you won't.
@@stevedietrich8936 War is war. What the Hell is wrong with you soft people today. How many, British, German and Japanese women and children died during the bombings of WWII. Good grief!
@@talltexan6432 please, with all due respect, RESPECT our Don Father! NO arguing here. God bless you.
This is a great song. You should react to the song Johnny Reb by Johnny Horton
His rider was Lt. Miles Keough
Janis, it was Captain Myles Keough. He was an Irishman, who served with the Vatican's Papal Guard before coming to the US and joining the Union Army. He participated in the Civil War, serving for a time with Brigadier John Buford, whose cavalry force made the initial contact with the Confederates that kicked off the battle of Gettysburg. I have read that Keough was a close friend of BG Buford, and was at his bedside when the ailing Buford died. Keough stayed with the army after the Civil War, only to die with General Custer and his soldiers of the 7th Cavalry at the Battle of the Little Big Horn. .
That's always been a favourite of mine
Comanche was the only survivor of Little Big Horn, where General Custer met his end. Comanche was one of the Sergeant's horse, not a Native American horse.
If I remember he was a half breed mustang so technically he was a native horse. But I get what you mean.
You can see Comanche 👀 at the University of Kansas. He was one tuff horse. He was 1/2 Mustang and 1/2 Morgan Horse. A Scot named Johnny Rivers found em. They made him 2nd in Comand at the Fort. He loved Sun Flower's and he loved to drink Beer.
Not all soldiers in the 7th died that day. Lt. Col Custer split his forces in three columns major Reno and Capt Benteen along with mist of their men survived. He split to ensure the native Americans didn’t scatter.
Custer made the rank of General at the age of 23. During the civil war, he was key to many Union victories. He was even ant Lee’s surrender at Appomattox and was given the desk.
The Battle of Little Big Horn, or Greasy grass, shouldn’t have happened. General Terry fought in a battle a couple days before(Rose Bud)and could have warned Custer of the size of the gathering.
Also, if Benteen had followed orders to come with wagons and ammo, the battle may have not ended the way it did. Winning the battle sealed the fate of the plaines tribes.
My favorite song by John y Horton
Comanche was allowed to stand formation , unmounted, each time the 7th Cavalry would prepare to ride out on missions in the wake of Custer's Last Stand. He did this on his own. It was how he'd been trained. Upon his death, his body was preserved and stands at Ft. Riley, Kansas, I believe. But don't quote me. Great song by Johnny Horton. Check out "Johnny Freedom," "Jim Bridger," "Battle of New Orleans," "Sink the Bismarck," and "Reuben James". He had so many.
Thank you for playing this song, tribute to a Horse….not Custer…
Custer deserves tribute as do all U.S. soldiers that tamed the Western part of America. Thank the Lord that many of my ancestors fought and defeated the Comanche and made Texas a great place to be. War is war and the Plains Indians lost.
Yeah I honestly wasn't sure because I know native Americans could have names similar to that. Thanks very much
Wasn’t Comanches that took out Custer ps. I seen his horse was named Comanche
@@talltexan6432 "Tamed" Per Google, tamed /tām/ verb past tense; "domesticate (an animal)." Your word choice is so telling of your perspective; you imply that the Nʉmʉnʉʉ were animals to be domesticated. You don't even use you native tongue correctly. The correct term is "conquered" if you are referring to a "war" first waged by the Republic of Texas and then by the United States of invading, occupying, and colonizing the Native American tribes' sovereign territory. The invasion of the Americas by the European powers is the single most devastating GENOCIDE recorded in human history. The United States government even recognized Native American tribes as sovereign entities when the nation was created. The Constitution enumerated the Congress the power to "regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes". So the use of the word "tamed" in reference to the native peoples of the American West is the wildly inappropriate for the context. As Nʉmʉnʉʉ myself whose father was born in a teepee in the Wichita Mountains of Southwest Oklahoma as documented on his birth certificate and whose grandfather was born in parts unknown around 1864, I am versed in the history of my people.
@The Dons Channel My apologies, sir, for the rant on your video comments. Please take caution in your exploration of American history for it is racially complex due to the "melting pot" nature of its creation. Ignorant, insensitive, or plainly incorrect statements my evoke a visceral reaction in some especially the historically underprivileged members of American society. Note: Before the comment flamethrowers come out, I agree and accept that it WAS a war and that the Europeans won. It has been an essential part of the nature of mankind to physically fight for its survival since time immemorial. But lets not be disinclined to calling a spade a spade and be able to frankly discuss the events as they actually happened and not through bigoted nor rose-colored glasses.
@@rorywomack4030 no. Many tribes. Arapahoe, Sioux, Cheyenne.
The Battle of Little Bighorn was not against the Comanche, but an alliance of certain Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes.
Comanche was literally the name of an American Officer's horse injured at the battle.
Another very fuuunny song about Custer and the battle of Little Big Horn, 'Please Mr. Custer , Larry Verne , 1960' uploaded by Wicker Bill (best sound).
(best historical photos and videos version is uploaded by Peter Garcia)
Nobody should miss this song....
I love this song I was younger when I heard it
I know I'm 3 years late to the conversation but I'll help you out anyway.
The battle of the Little Bighorn (river) is also known as Custer's Last Stand. It's kind of like America's Isandlwana. Happened at pretty much the same time give or take a hand full of years.
It happened down in the south of Africa. For pretty much for the same reasons too. Did you guys write a song about that?
I love that song. I didn't know of that song.
Another song you should do by Johnny Horton that touches on the battle of Little Big Horn is "Jim Bridger".
Good to be back I broke my phone I got a. New 1 real name this time Linda..not Patricia
THIS SONG SERVES AS A BALLAD THAT ANY WARRIOR/SOLDIER CAN RELATE TO.
At least I have something in common with Johnny Horton and Johnny Cash aside from my first name I have Cherokee in me too !
You should check out his song "Sleepy eyed John"
That song was one of my favorite songs but also the fact I'm two parts native American two different tribes
If you come to the USA and you want to see the beauty of the Native American you should come in April. The Powwow of all Indian people/tribes occurs in Albuquerque, NM. Also while in Albuquerque must visit the Indian Culture Center. NM offers many different heritages and events. The Hot Air Balloon Fiesta was held the first 10 days of October. This year we celebrated the 50th year of Ballooning. Look for NM on line.
I enjoy your reactions. Just recently subscribed.
From what I have heard, When Comanche returned to Custer. The Indians took it as a sign, and did not scalp Custer.
Comanche was the only Survivor of General Custards 7th Calvary, who attacked the Sioux I think? They set up an ambush for him he didn't wait on backup, the Sioux hid in the tents, and came out and killed all 700 American cavalrymen, Comanche the horse was the only thing the army found alive, he is in a museum in Lawrence Kansas, at the University of Kansas, stuffed and in a display case.
React to Scottish highlander games in the USA
It wouldn't have been great to see the Comanche back then.
It would have been terrifying.
The Comancheria was a raiding empire that existed within the territory of the United States and fought wars against both the US and Mexico. It covered around half on Texas, half of New Mexico, and into Oklahoma, and they raided as far as the gulf coast and central Mexico.
Because US and Mexican law wasn't enforced there, it also became a haven for American, Mexican, and native outlaws and bandits as well.
A Comanche war party is not what anyone wanted to see unless you were riding with the US Cavalry.
Among the soldiers killed with Custer that day were his brother, Thomas, and his brother in law. There may have been another family member as well, I don't recall for certain. Thomas Custer was a legitimate Civil War hero, twice being awarded the Medal of Honor (the first person to do so).
History in a song
Don I agree with you about the interest in the Native American history. The respect of the land. This is off the topic but with the 4th of July just days away watch Black Rifle Coffee Company’s the Star Spangled Steel where they play the song with their guns against steel plates. Thanks for all the great videos you play for us!!!!!
I hope he reacts to star spangled steel by black rifle coffee either today or tomorrow.
Comanche was not at the “generals feet he was found on the battlefield and Comanche was keoghs horse not Custer”s
Battle of Little Big Horn...in Hardin Montana they do an re-enactment
100,000,000 indigenous people were murdered for this land as a wish chief once said we were not born in America America was born on our land
I read that after Comanche passed away he was taxidermied. It's amazing that Custers horse was the soul surviver of the battle of Little Big Horn.
Comanche was CPT Myle's Keough's horse, not General Custer's.
@@davidniven5155 Thank you for setting me straight. 😁
Perhaps Horse Soldier.
When Europeans first hit America's shores the First Nations already here had 2 strikes against them, it was inevitable that they would fall with the mindset of the day. First, while some tribes did set up a loose confederacy the majority did not like each other which made it much easier for the invaders to set them against each other. Second, while there was some metallurgy with Gold and Silver which migrated from S. American tribes, despite the advanced technology they used to form their weapons, they were still mired very much in the stone age, they didn't even have Horses at that time (it's hard to think about American tribes without them, for the prairie tribes taking down huge Bison without Horses must have been a hard life). The Comanche was one of the most fierce and feared. They held their own a long time against the settlers.
Thanks very much for the Information
A lot of the European didn't like each other.
Heck, the English didn't like each other.
I like the streets of dodge
also refered to as custers last stand they have tons of videos and shows on it
Tonka Wa Kan
You should listen to Horton’s songs John Paul Jones and Bismarck.
Add "Johnny Reb", too.
As an American I feel that we did the indigenous people very wrong. We fought agai9nst them as a nation with advanced firepower and still got whooped. That speaks volumes. But so far (as a local people) we have embraced them and learned from them and become better for it.
In reality, the Indian warriors at the Little Big Horn were at least as well, if not better, armed than the Cavalry troopers.
Would like to see ur reaction to some ‘johnny horton’.
Duuuhhh... this was. Maybe ‘bismarck’ ... ‘Johnny reb’
Check out Seminole Wind by John Anderson .
I respectfully submit that you have reservations about reservations here in the states...there’s a lot of things here about native American conditions that are nothing to write home about. Unemployment, alcohol and drugs and Uncle Sam infusing cash into the community, have combined to keep a lot of people in a self-induced coma.
None of the recent liberal policies are focused on helping the Native American population here. Anyway, I tried to be informative without being an alarmist.
After a wildfire cleared the battlefield not too many years ago, they were able to reconstruct the battle much more accurately than all of the battle myths surrounding Custer. There's a documentary about that project that is excellent. Unsurprisingly, the battle reconstruction was far closer to Native American historical versions. The battlefield area is a national monument, and I believe it's against the law to disturb it. The wildfire gave them a window to do the new research.
Little Big Horn was the last great battle won by the Indian people, after that the American government pretty much rounded all of them up and placed them on reservations, starved them out , created horrible propaganda against them, and ripped their children from them and sent them to government schools where they were systematically brainwashed and their language and culture were taken away by force. The reservations are big scale government induced poverty centers where almost all resident are on the dole, school performance is poor, alcohol and drug dependence is higher than average and suicide rates are very high. To this day many things go ignored, like domestic abuse, rape and kidnapping. Much needs to be done but for some reason few Natives trust any other race, gee, I wonder why.
I so totally agree. That is also what happened to a few other communities in the US. And people wonder why they all pretty much shoot at us, at worst. And bearly tolerate us at best. And also why most native stores won't take any 20-dollar bills.
"It would have been great to see them then." ...That would depend on which tribe. The Comanche and Apache were raiders and warriors long before Europeans showed up. That's why the US military had to be the ones to fight them off. The Apache were fierce enough to contain the more advanced Aztec empire south of the Rio Grande, even though the Aztec culture required them to war with other nations to gain slaves and human sacrifices for their gods. It's the reason I roll my eyes every time I hear people talk about Hispanic immigrants having a "prior claim" to the US. Every land formerly ruled by Hispanic native ancestors is currently by Hispanics. The Hispanics who spread north of the Mexico border with the Spanish conquistadors remained in the US after fighting on our side in the Spanish-American War that gave the US the American Southwest.

That was a massacre the general went up against three different tribes of native Americans which were the Sue apache and cheyenne and he only did it with a handful of Mettin when he should have waited for the gatling guns to Arrive, but he believed that they were unnecessary, which was his downfall.He was too overconfident
And I'm not disrespecting general Custer he was a great man but he should have used his head and not charged o
Into a Hornets nest of native american warriors that outnumber his troop fifteen to 1 Especially when they weren't using state-of-the-art firearms. I mean, they did have the cold peacemaker with them. As the modern term is the cold single action army, but they only had Springfield. Trap to rifles, which was automatically they had to reload, and the name of Americans were using winchesters, which were liver action rifles that had a capacity of 11 rounds in the magazine. And that meant they could rapid fire faster than the soldiers with the trap door springfields
An animal lover, loved the Book, Movie and Song. So glad he was honored and taken care of.
Video doesn't fit the song. It would fit a Sonny James indian brave.
Still doesn't come close to the Great William Wallace the true BRAVEHEART. We need William Wallace's today.
the battle of little big horn was where col. Custer was defeated and comanche was Custers horse
Comanche actually belonged to Capt Keogh.
I like your reaction videos. But the fact that you only react to patreon subscribers is really disturbing. I don’t have the extra money to do that. But I have worthy ideas too. That to me means unless we are paying you, you don’t care what we think or desire. Sorry but that is exactly what it looks like

Custer w as a GEEZER....Very arrogant! No respect for the Tribes! look at Little BIG HORN!
As a sixth generational Texan, I have family history of fighting against the Comanche. Thank the Good Lord my brave ancestors helped to defeat them. The video for the song should only be about a noble war horse.
