On the Fact that in Preparation for His Long and Fatal Pursuit of Sitting Bull's Traveling Village (Their Final Campground of Course Being On the Famed Little Bighorn River), Colonel Custer a) Refused the Use of a Gatling Gun, b) Had His Men Leave Their Sabers Behind (They Apparently Made a Rattling Sound Making Hard to Sneak Up On the Enemy - His Reasoning, Not Mine), and c) Declined the Offer of Four Additional Companies Courtesy of the 2nd Cavalry

And how did all of this work out for him? Not great (the man's hubris and prior penchant for good luck finally running out, part and parcel to his ruin), I would argue.
