Andy Hanson is a dad, a husband, an Army Guard Officer, and a garbage man. He is one of my favorite people to talk to because he never has nothing to talk about. He captures crazy stuff he finds on his garbage route on Snapchat, has a passion for shooting and hunting, and history. The best part of this episode was talking about the Battle of Slim Buttes in Harding County, South Dakota, not long after the Battle of Little Big Horn. We went long and had a fantastic time and a ton of laughs!
Joe Erickson is my brother, is the owner/operator/painter of Painter Joe's Painting, a big (snobby) fan of fancy whiskey, and a newlywed. He doesn't like how I like whiskey or my level of enthusiasm for trying a 21 year Bushmills. We also talk about camping in places that are not campgrounds, tourist traps in the Black Hills, and Slim Buttes in Harding County. Plus how he shot a hole in his buddy's roof. SIOUX FALLS SHOOTING can help you have a good time safely with your guns, learn to shoot, get better at shooting, or get your South Dakota Enhanced Carry Permit, and you will have fun in the process.

With the end of the Civil War, George Crook’s decision to continue serving in the United States Army meant reverting to a lower rank and assuming a command in the Pacific Northwest. Yet, as Paul Magid details in the second volume of his biography of Crook, The Gray Fox: George Crook and the Indian Wars (University of Oklahoma Press, 2015), he would soon emerge as one of the most prominent figures in the army’s ongoing operations against Native Americans in the territories. In describing Crook’s campaign against the Paiutes in the Great Basin, Magid details the relentless attritional warfare that was a hallmark of his strategy against the tribes he fought. Results in the Northwest led to his transfer to Arizona, where his success against the Apache and Yavapai earned him a promotion to the rank of brigadier general. With his selection as the head of the Department of the Platte in 1875, Crook found himself coping with the deteriorating situation in the Dakota Territory created by the surge of prospectors and settlers, and with the outbreak of the war against the Sioux, the general took to the field in a series of grueling campaigns. Though suffering a setback at the battle of Rosebud, Crook’s subsequent victory at Slim Buttes led to the subjugation of the Sioux and the surrender of Crazy Horse, which cemented Crook’s reputation as the army’s leading expert in Indian warfare.
