Billings Man Recites Custer Battle Story and Army Award
Major George P. F. Spath of Billings received the Bronze Star for his service in Korea with the Headquarters Company of the 9th Cavalry Regiment. A local observer, Colonel Freda Huntington, weighs in with a critical study of the Little Big Horn defeat, recounting an authentic Sioux account of the battle and denying a Reno message. Also noted are officers in active training at Long Beach and Sidney Steinbrink returning from the Far East aboard the USS Philippine Sea.
