Anybody know where a fellow could find an accurate timeline of the different events of the battle.
Particularly Benteen’s arrival on Reno Hill, Captain Weir’s advance to Weir point, and Custer’s Battalion’s fight to the death. (I know that can’t be nailed down)
The fight took place before time zones were established in the USA. But the officers of the 7th had their watches set to Chicago time.
Judging from that fact, I’m guessing sunrise would have been 6:30 or 7:00 AM by their clocks, sunset closer to 10:30 PM?
That sound right?
