[LITTLE BIG HORN BATTLE]. Four-page typed letter from John Ryan, a survivor of the Little Big Horn Battle to a former member of the 7th Cavalry reminiscing about the battle, fellow soldiers, and his memories of old times at Fort Rice and Fort Lincoln.

Rising through the ranks he was appointed Sergeant and receiving his "blood stripes" after Sergeant Erwin Vanousky was killed during the Battle of Washita River. Ryan participated in the Yellowstone and Black Hills Expeditions of 1873-1874. He was promoted to First Sergeant in 1874, but was reduced to Private after a court martial found him guilty of abusing a prisoner. Approximately one month later Major Marcus A.
