Photographed at old Fort Meade near present day Stugis, South Dakota. Bear Butte is visible in the background.

Comanche resided at Fort Meade from 1879 to 1888, where he held a position of pride and reverence with the 7th Cavalry.

Per General Order No. 7, “upon all occasions of ceremony of mounted regimental formation, Comanche, saddled, bridled, and draped in mourning, and led by a mounted trooper of Company I” was paraded with the regiment.

🖼️ Joe Grandee.

The Comanche Wars predate United States Army involvement, with earlier conflicts against Spain, Mexico, and the Republic of Texas.

In all, the Lords of the Southern Plains fought European encroachment on their land for 169 years (1706-1875).

The final major battle took place at Palo Duro Canyon in the heart of Comancheria in 1874, with the last band under Quanah Parker surrendering in 1875.
