Question 8 • SSHS IUS002 US History II
The battle is called “Custer’s Last Stand” because General George Armstrong Custer and the soldiers with him were killed there. Choice A captures that reason, though “all two hundred” is an approximate count; Custer’s immediate command included about 210 soldiers. The battle was not Custer’s last fight before retirement, nor was it the last conflict between the U.S. military and Plains tribes.
