Digitally restored vector portrait of General George Armstrong Custer. George Armstrong Custer went from last in his class at West Point, to Brigadier General at the age of 23. He was a very aggressive cavalry leader and was known for taking personal risk when leading his men. His Civil War record is widely overshadowed by his defeat at the Battle of Little Bighorn, where he and his men were massacred by a coalition of Native Americans.
