Confederate General Stand Watie
Wow it's been awhile since I've heard that name. I read a great book on General Watie in the 7th or 8th grade
Still enjoy checking in on this thread BadLeroyDawg.

Glad you do, tigers32. The same day I posted about General Stand Watie, I wrote that he was one of only two Native Americans on either side of the Civil War to rise to a brigadier general's rank; the other being Ely S. Parker, a Seneca Indian who was with General Grant's staff for the surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox Court House. Thanks for the feedback!
