King & Country's TRW022 Captain Myles Keogh
An Irish soldier-of-fortune who somehow ended up in the 7th Cavalry. Tough, experienced and reliable Keogh is seen wearing a Civil War kepi and the black embroidered “Patrol” jacket. With one hand he keeps Custer’s personal guidon upright... with the other he takes careful aim.
The Indian Wars following the end of the Civil War were an important time for the United States... A growing population was forever requiring more land to settle and build on as well as to explore and exploit for its abundant natural resources.
Among the land most coveted were the treaty-held territories granted to the Native American tribes. Most Indians reluctantly had to accept and agree to whatever the whitemen in Washington said. Some however did not... Especially the Lakota (Sioux) and the Cheyenne.
Eventually this would lead to war that would involve the U.S. Cavalry and the Indians. The most famous engagement of those times was The Battle of the Little Bighorn which took place on June 25/26, 1876.
