Custer

Watched a documentary last night a survivor of the last stand. Very interesting. He claimed to have been shot twice and wounded by his shattered gun. Name of Frank Finchley or August. He rode away from the fight and was taken in by a hermit and nursed. Apparently, he may have been a deserter at some point too, a common situation then.

Is that the show with IIRC Kelsey Grammer? I've been watching it and that is a good show.
