Nine days before Little Bighorn

If you ask - where
These tales and legends
With their forest fragrance
The moist freshness of the valley
The blue haze of wigwams
The noise of rivers and waterfalls,
Noise, wild and euphonic
How in the mountains rumble of thunder? -
I will tell you, I will answer:
"From forests, desert plains,
From the lakes of Midnight Country,
From the country of Ojibway,
From the land of wild Dakot,
From mountains and tundra, from swamp swamps,
Where among sedge wanders
Gray Heron, Shuh-shuh-ha.
I repeat these tales
These old traditions ...
Henry Longfellow. Song of Hiawatha. Per. I. Bunina

Native American War. I read my first book “About the Indians” by James W. Schultz “With Indians in the Rockies” a long time ago as a child, and then I read everything about them in a row, starting with The White Leader by Mine Reed and ending with the Liselotta Welskopf Heinrich trilogy Sons Big Dipper. " Well, the film made from this book seemed completely miraculous to me, as well as all the films about Vinneta that were seen at the same time in the cinema - the leader of the Apache. We often played Indians, so I made a headdress of Crow Indians from black feathers nesting at my raven school, but my comrades had to be content with chicken and cockerels from domestic chicken coops - for some reason, black glossy ravens at the schools where they studied They didn’t want to live and did not lose their feathers. Recently, I again went through the square at my former school, and the crows, like half a century ago, lived there the same way. I wanted to remember that old hobby, and immediately thought, and what "Native American" I did not write on "VO" yet. He wrote about the Battle of Little Bighorn, and about the Battle of Roseblad ... However, there was another battle, moreover, at the same time that General Custer was heading towards his death. This is the Battle of the White Bird Canyon, which took place on June 17 1877 in Idaho, exactly nine days before Little Bighorn! And today our story will go about her ...

Gold is the cause of all drams

White Bird Canyon was the initial battle of the non-Perse Indians (or “Pierced Noses”) and the United States of North America. This battle was yet another, and it would be more correct to even say, the first significant defeat of the US Army, who at that time fought with the prairie Indians. And it happened in the western part of modern Idaho, southwest of the city of Grungeville.

Here they are - cinematic Indians, led by the most famous Indian of all times and peoples, Goyko Mitich. Still from the movie “Sons of the Big Dipper”, based on the novel by Liselott Welskopf Heinrich

And it happened that, according to the initial agreement between the US government and non-Persian, signed in 1855, white immigrants should not encroach on ancestral lands reserved for the reservation for non-Persian. But in 1860, gold was found in non-Persian places of residence, which led to an uncontrolled influx of miners and settlers into the area. Despite numerous breaches of the treaty, the non-Persian Indians remained completely peaceful.

Real Indians were very similar to cinema. Or cinema on the real ones, since photographs of the latter have been preserved. Here's what, for example, the same leader, non-Perse Joseph, looked like when he was young. By the way, in his tribe he was called Hinmaton-Yalatkit or more correctly Hin-ma-tu-ya-lat-kekt, which means "Thunder Rolling Through the Mountains." He was called Joseph because his father converted to Christianity and was Joseph Sr., and Hin-ma-tu ... and so on - Joseph Jr. or simply “Leader Joseph” (National historical no-perce park)

And so he looked after the events that are discussed here. (National Historic Park None Perce)

De facto and de jure

Then, wanting to de jure record what has already taken place de facto, the US government in 1863 proposed that non-Perse sign a new agreement, which reduced the amount of the reservation allotted to them by 90%. However, the leaders of the clans who lived outside the new reservation refused to sign the “theft agreement” and continued to live outside it until the spring of 1877.

Today, a national park is organized on the lands of non-Perse. And in the park there’s a wonderful museum that tells the story of the United States army’s non-Persian confrontation

And it’s beautiful there, just like in the movie about the Indians!

Only here tee-pi purely decorative properties. But ... clearly show what it was (National Historical Park no-Perse)

In May 1877, after several attacks by the US Army, the Indians nevertheless moved to a new reservation. But the genus Wall-lam-wat-kain (Wallova), led by leader Joseph, lost a large number of horses and cattle, since he had to force rivers that were swollen from spring runoff. Groups of Indians Chief Joseph and Chief White Bird eventually gathered in Tepahlwam, a traditional Kamas Indian prairie camp on Lake Tolo, to enjoy the last days of their traditional way of life. Moreover, although the leaders managed to convince their people that the Whitechwins are white people, stronger and they should obey the inevitable, far from all of their people agreed with the course of peace and harmony with the pale-faced.

Leader Joseph's shirt. The prairie Indians created a distinctive culture and what is left of it is carefully preserved today. Here it is, for example, the leader’s shirt, decorated with petting skins. Her story is this: he wore it during negotiations with Colonel Nelson Miles. A ceasefire was established during which second lieutenant Lowell Jerome drove into a zone controlled by a non-Perse. He was detained and taken hostage when Joseph did not return from the whites. Then Joseph returned and donated this shirt to Jerome, who donated it to his alma mater, the United States Military Academy at West Point. Already in our time, the US Military Academy donated it to the Museum of the National Historical Park of Nepers (National Historical Park of Nepers)

And this is just a festive reindeer-skin non-Perse shirt decorated with beadwork and a fringe of weasel skins (National Historical Park of non-Perse)

No-Perse on the warpath

The leaders in the Indian tribes never had authoritarian power and in some cases simply could not order their people. On 14 on June 17, young people traveled to the Salmon River area to avenge the murder of the father of one of them and also the others who were killed in the previous attacks of the 1875 year. The target of the attacks, however, was not the soldiers, but the settlers who lived in the area. 15 June attack was committed and crowned with success. At least 18 settlers were killed. Success inspired the rest, and other non-Persians joined the avengers. And the settlers had no choice but to send messengers to Fort Lapwai nearest to them and ask the military for help.

It was believed that to defeat him is much more difficult than over the Indians of other tribes, for example, Pawnee or Crow. Therefore, the one who succeeded in doing this proudly wore this peculiar decoration (National Historical Park no-Perse)

Strange as it may seem, a lot of all kinds of Native American artifacts are in the Vienna World Museum - the largest anthropological and ethnographic museum in Austria (New Hovburg Palace, south wing). It was there that the famous headdress of the Aztec emperor Montezuma ended up in the end and here is an impressive collection of Native American clothing and shoes!

Neparce in Tepahlwam knew that General O. O. Howard was preparing to send his soldiers against them. Since they could only be reached through the White Bird Canyon, on June 16 the Indians moved to its southern end, and it was about five miles long, a maximum of one mile wide and bounded on all sides by steep mountain slopes. At night, the sentries reported the approach of American soldiers from the north. After much deliberation, the non-Persians decided that they would stay in the White Bird Canyon and do their best to avoid war, but would fight if they were forced to do so. Everyone was ready to die, but not to leave their land. In addition, confidence in the strength was added by the fact that Joseph's brother Allocot brought reinforcements to the canyon.

Shields played a special role in the culture of the Indians, and not only military. They were both male and female and were the external embodiment of the spiritual essence of man. They were made of bison leather taken from the scruff of the neck, smoked, sewn in several layers, and of course, decorated. Here it is, for example, the shield of the Dakota Indians (Glenbow Museum, Canada)

Forces and position of the parties

Captain David Perry commanded company F in this operation, and captain Joel Graham Trimble company H of the 1 Cavalry Regiment of the United States. The officers and soldiers of both companies together totaled 106 people. Eleven civilian volunteers also rode with them, and in Fort Lapwai they were joined by 13 Indian reconnaissance from hostile non-Persian tribes. Almost half of the soldiers were foreigners who spoke poor English. In addition, most of them were inexperienced riders and shooters. Both horses and riders were not ready for battle. In addition, both people and horses were exhausted by a two-day trip over 70 miles, and arrived in White Bird Canyon in far worse physical condition.

There were fewer non-Persian warriors: 135 people, but in their raids on the settlers they stole so many whiskeys that they drank all night long, and therefore on the morning of 17 on June many of them were too drunk to fight. Therefore, only about 70 warriors participated in the battle. Ollocott and the White Bird led units of approximately the same size. Chief Joseph may also have participated in the battle, but he was not a military leader. The Nerxes had at their disposal 45-50 firearms, including hunting shotguns, revolvers, ancient muskets and Winchester carbines, which they again mined in settlements from settlers. Some warriors still fought with a bow and arrow. Although the non-Perse had no experience of war with white soldiers, their knowledge of the area, excellent craftsmanship and well-trained appaloosa horses proved to be a great advantage for them. Nepers were used to use bullets sparingly on a hunt and were good shooters. They usually dismounted from their horses to shoot, and the horse stood calmly and ate grass while its master was fighting. On the contrary, many US cavalry horses, having heard the shots and the battle cry of the Indians, were frightened and suffered, and this panic among the horses was precisely the main reason for the defeat of the soldiers in the White Bird Canyon.

The ceased truce

At dawn 17 June non-Perse (let's say, those who could confidently stay in the saddle) prepared for the expected attack. Waiting for the soldiers, 50 warriors of the leader of Ollocoth settled on the western side of the canyon, and 15 warriors on the eastern side. Thus, the soldiers moving down the canyon were put in two fires. Six white-flag non-Persian warriors were waiting for approaching soldiers to discuss armistice conditions.

Soldiers, civilian volunteers, and scout scouts descended to White Bird Canyon along the road with wagons from the northeast. The advance team, consisting of a company of Lieutenant Edward Teller, trumpeter John Jones, several scouts, seven soldiers from company F and a civilian volunteer Arthur Chapman, was the first to meet with the Indians. Seeing the white flag, the soldiers stopped. Negotiations have begun. The Yellow Wolf Indian later described the incident as follows: “Five soldiers, led by Vettivetti Hulis ... were sent from the other [western] side of the valley to meet with the soldiers. These warriors were instructed by the leaders not to shoot. Of course, they carried a white flag. Peace can be made without a fight, the leaders decided. Why, and why no one knows, a white man named Chapman fired a truce. Warriors with a white flag took refuge right there, and the rest of the non-Persians returned fire immediately.

And the battle struck!

After the first shots, Lieutenant Teller ordered the cavalry to dismount, dismounted himself and unfolded his men in a chain on top of a low hill. And then there was a real chain of errors and a fatal combination of circumstances, which ultimately led to the defeat of white Americans and the victory of the Redskins. It began with the fact that the trumpeter Jones was ordered to give a signal that the vanguard of the detachment had been attacked so that all other troops would rather go to his aid. But before Jones could blow the bell, he was shot dead by the warrior Oststotpoo, who was at a distance of more than 300 yards (270 m) from him and also sat astride. Captain Perry dismounted and with his company took up a position on the east side of the canyon. Rota N, led by Captain Trimble, turned around on the west side of Teller’s position. Civilian volunteers attempted to occupy one of the hills on the flank of the cavalry.

Captain Perry believed that his left (eastern) flank was defended by volunteers. However, he could not see their position. Meanwhile, volunteers led by George Shearer encountered Indian soldiers who were hiding in the bushes by the river. He also ordered his people to dismount and fight on foot and several people obeyed him, but the others, apparently frightened by the Indians, left the place of battle and galloped north. Seeking to protect Perry's soldier, Shearer brought the remaining people to the top of the hill. In this position, he was between the non-Persian warriors attacking Perry's left flank, and the well-aimed fire of the Indian warriors defending the White Bird camp.

Perry tried to join Teller and attack the non-Persian warriors threatening his left flank. At the same time, for some reason, he ordered the throwing of Springfield single-shot carbines and the use of six-shot revolvers. He ordered the trumpeter Daily to blow the signal for the attack, but it turned out that he had lost his pipe. Thus, Perry’s connection with his soldiers was lost along with the pipe, and the order was not transmitted. Then Perry ordered those soldiers who were in his field of vision to take the horses and take them from the line of fire to a protected place. Further, Perry himself and the rest of the soldiers of Company F advanced on foot.

Meanwhile, Company H was trying to turn into a chain at intervals of five yards along the slope of the canyon. But the horses of the cavalry fled, frightened by the shots. The Indians rushed to catch them, but the soldiers could not shoot at them, fearing to hit the horses.

Captain Perry, who, on his horse, kept in touch between the two companies, saw the volunteers retreat to the exit of the canyon. To compensate for their departure, Captain Trimble sent Sergeant Michael M. McCarthy and six men to take the highest point over the battlefield to protect their right flank. Perry also noticed a suitable high hill and tried to send his soldiers there to help McCarthy.

But it was too late, the soldiers suffered heavy losses from the fire of the Indians. Rota F misinterpreted Perry's order to occupy the hill as a signal for a general retreat. Company H, seeing the withdrawal of Company F, also began to depart, and left McCarthy and his men on the hill without support.

One of the beautiful pictures depicting the US Army during the Indian War. In fact, often everything looked completely wrong ...

Feeling victory, the Allocott equestrian warriors began to chase the retreating soldiers. McCarthy, realizing that he was cut off from the main detachment, galloped to the retreating troops. But Captain Trimble ordered McCarthy and his men to return to their position and hold it until help approaches. However, Trimble was never able to assemble the soldiers to help McCarthy. True, McCarthy and his people briefly detained the no-Perse, and then even managed to retreat, but could not catch up with the main part of Trimble's company. McCarthy's horse was killed, but he escaped by hiding in the bushes on the banks of a river flowing through the canyon. He sat in them for two days, and then went on foot to Grungeville. For his courage in this battle, he received the Medal of Honor of the US Congress.

A retreat similar to flight ...

Meanwhile, Lieutenant Teller was trapped in a steep rocky gorge, and in addition he ran out of bullets. As a result, he himself, and the seven remaining soldiers with him, were killed by the non-Persian Indians. Captain Perry and Captain Trimble fled northwest, making their way along the steep slopes. Finally they reached the prairie at the top of the ridge and there they saw a certain Johnson ranch. There they received help. Another part of the surviving soldiers continued to retreat along the canyon, periodically undergoing attacks by a non-Perse. An approaching volunteer squad saved them from death.

How did it all end?

By mid-morning, 34 cavalrymen of the US Army were killed and two wounded, and two volunteers were wounded at the beginning of the battle. On the contrary, only three non-Perse warriors were injured. 63 carbines, many revolvers and hundreds of cartridges were captured by non-Perse warriors as trophies. This weapon significantly improved their arsenal and was actively used in the remaining months of the war. The corpses of some of the dead soldiers were found only ten days after the battle, since they were scattered over a space of ten miles. Therefore, many of them were buried right at the place of death, and not in a mass grave, as was planned at first.

Note that the prairie Indians were not at all ignorant savages and understood a lot about white weapons. In this photo, for example, the Apache warrior is depicted with the Evans carbine - the most multi-loaded carbine in US history.

But, like all Indian victories, the defeat of the US cavalry in the White Bird Canyon is only a temporary non-Persian victory. They won their first battle with soldiers outnumbering them, but in the end they still lost the war.

After the battle, the non-Persians crossed to the eastern bank of the Salmon River, and when General Howard arrived with more than 400 soldiers there a few days later, they began to mock him and his people on their side of the river. The tribe then had about 600 men, women and children, many tents, 2000 horses and other cattle. The general only managed to cross the Salmon River with difficulty, but instead of fighting the superior forces of Howard, the Indians quickly crossed the river in the opposite direction, leaving it on the opposite bank. Thereby they won time and were able to break away from the US Army. Chief Joseph offered to retreat to Montana. And this retreat of Joseph and his people was recognized as one of the brightest episodes in US military history. Having met with the crow, the non-Perse asked them to help. But they refused, and then the non-Perse decided to leave for Canada.

After that, they crossed the Rocky Mountains twice, then repelled the attack of a detachment of John Gibbon in the battle of Big Hole, crossed the Yellowstone National Park and again crossed the deep Missouri. In the end, they traveled a journey of 2600 km in length, but on 30 of September 1877 of the year in the Baer-Po mountains they were still surrounded by soldiers under the command of Colonel Nelson Miles. But even then, the non-Persian units still managed to slip away and leave for Canada. The remaining defended for five days. But since there were women and children with the soldiers, Joseph was forced to lay down his arms. On October 5, 87 men, 184 women and 147 children surrendered to white.

The Indians were transferred to the reservation, where they remained to live. Leader Joseph was held in high esteem by both his compatriots and the whites. He traveled to Washington several times and defended the interests of his people. Met with Presidents William McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt. He died on 21 of September 1904 of the year at Colville Reservation.

[svp67]

Thanks. Once again, I became convinced that the United States, from its very formation, is a "predatory state", in its own interests trampling on previously signed agreements, as soon as it feels that it has enough strength for this.

[Kenxnumx]

Well, it’s necessary. This is where the root of all evil is. By the way, I agree. But we will be fair. And the British fooled in India, and in Africa for company with the Dutch, and the Spaniards in the Americas, and according to some estimates, the 80% cut-off indigenous population of Siberia does not mean that the Russians behaved somehow especially mildly. Everywhere where there are, as it were, civilized and as if barbarians (which are usually worse with weapons), barbarians have something that civilized needs. Yasak, land or oil

[svp67]

Quote: Ken71

and according to some estimates, at 80% the cut-off indigenous population of Siberia

Yes, who did that "pokuralesil" there? And nothing that was "cut out" was not part of the tasks of Russian colonization, we did not have enough people, people had to be taken under our "wing" and forced to pay yasak, but you won’t take anything from the dead

[Kenxnumx]

The population somehow did not really want to pay yasak, so to speak, objected actively. But mostly smallpox was tried, as in the United States. By the way, not only Siberia. You know why Krasnaya Polyana near Sochi is called Krasnaya Polyana. The fate of the Empire is to flatten barbarians. Nothing personal - yours was ours.

[svp67]

Quote: Ken71

The population somehow did not really want to pay yasak, so to speak, actively objected

The thing is that in Siberia the indigenous population was already under the oppression of the newcomers and they already did not care who to pay yasak, Kuchum or Yermak. So, here you are wrong.
You know, in the history of Russia, there was no case that peoples were destroyed for the sake of "pleasure", all these cases were caused by the harsh need to bring them to a "common denominator", but to destroy the indigenous population of an entire continent like that.

[Kenxnumx]

Ah, so it turns out the newcomers are to blame. It was they who liberated Siberia. Thanks to Ermak and Khabarov (who, by the way, scared the children for a long time) to the liberators. You probably think that the Russians only bombed the Kuchumovites. By the way, here's a laugh, but the Kuchumovites in Siberia were about like Russians in the Crimea :)
But I will disappoint you. The locals also got a fair share. Tungusam, for example, or there Daurs or Yakuts or Yukagirs and other Chukchi. About the Siberian Tatars silent of course. In the Caucasus, whole tribes who dared to defend their lands. And Central Asia, although there is true slavery and all that, are wild barbarians. In general, we are no better than the Americans or the rest of the British and Spaniards there. Nothing. Profit and technical superiority - this is imperial behavior. And nothing offensive in this.

[svp67]

Quote: Ken71

By the way, here's a laugh, but the Kuchumovites in Siberia were about like Russians in the Crimea :)

No, if we compare, then with the Crimean Tatars. Kuchumovtsy were like the Crimean Tatars in the Crimea, since both were fragments of the same empire.

Quote: Ken71

In general, we are no better than the Americans or the rest of the British and Spaniards there.

Show us where the reservations were created, beyond which the local was forbidden to leave and go.

[Kenxnumx]

Russians in the Crimea defeated the Tatars, forced to pay yasak, and gradually drove them out of trump places.
Regarding reservations. Reservation is not a concentration camp. Some are larger than some states. And by rights it’s like the states - tribal councils rule there and tribal laws operate along with federal ones. There, by the way, gambling is allowed, which makes it possible to open a casino and have a profit. By the way, regarding the land, the Indians won the courts over the federal government many times and received compensation. They receive financial assistance and many of them have settled themselves and made a career outside of the reservations. So do not worry about the Indians of America. Willing to worry - you can do it for the indigenous peoples of Siberia

[RUSS]

Quote: Ken71

It was they who liberated Siberia.

You forgot to add the conquest of Central Asia, Bukhara, Khiva, etc.

[Kenxnumx]

You watched inattentively

[Pereira]

Do not embellish reality. Not 80%. The population of Siberia was completely slaughtered. And the aliens - Samoyeds, Evenks and other Tungus took the place of the cut ones.

Strange - in the same Canada, the Indians were not exterminated so zealously. And on the territory of the modern States it began even before their revolution - even Radishchev in his "Journey ..." mentioned the barbaric destruction of the Indians. But it seems that Americans and Canadians are practically one people.
There is such a good book by Dee Brown, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. It is well told about American atrocities.
Interestingly, will they ever repent for the genocide, for the fact that the indigenous population of the whole continent has decreased by an order of magnitude as a result of their actions?

[alebor]

Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me that the point here is in those fertile lands that the bison hunters in the United States owned - Great Plains Indians, for which they paid. In more northern Canada, the prairie area is relatively small.

[Lycan]

Quote: Dalny V

Interestingly, will they ever repent for the genocide, for the fact that the indigenous population of the whole continent has decreased by an order of magnitude as a result of their actions?

Why? Are the territories and influence squeezed out in order to repent later? Don’t tell my loafers ... You can make individual highly sensitive representatives of society repent (this is how Akhedzhakova, for example), but there’s little use for it. That is, if you were forced to work (with the maximum calculation of forces, resources and plans) to resume the population of tribes ... There would be no sense, but how would you (European invaders with SGA citizenship) force them in the absence of a dictatorship ??

You are so interesting ... and you don’t want to work on the Russian population?

[Kenxnumx]

At the suggestion of a respected Alex, I also had some questions :)

[Lycan]

About the population - this is lyric. retreat. The question was about "repentance" for genocide (and for squeezing out territories to complete the picture).

[1970mk]

You do not do such LYRICAL digressions pzhs! A better deal with the extinction of Russian that in fact happens. Then who should repent? What do you Indians? What is your people like?

[Lycan]

Quote: 1970mk

A better deal with the extinction of Russian that in fact happens

Deal with the extinction of Russian? Why? Let the Russians live and live, .. who is stopping them? As for the indigenous peoples of the North. America - some of the Russian people have such a trait as solidarity "at least in relation to". And what about "my people" - why should I personally go and make them multiply immensely? Or to come to an agreement with Milonov on the prohibition of contraceptives + the institution of "execution triplets" to eliminate non-professional adherents of abortion? Absurdity.

Here it is necessary to repent and the Spaniards, and the Dutch, and the French ... for all the Indians were savages! And in Canada there were forests. The Indians were driven out of the land, where it was possible to plow and sow. And why was it to expel them from the taiga?

[Far B]

Well, New England was also originally quite a forested area, which did not stop the pale-faced under the root of lime there all sorts of Iroquois and Delaware.

As a child, he was read by the Indians, swallowed everything, from Fenimore Cooper to Stanislav Suplatovich. More, of course, were interested in the Canadian Indians who lived in the forests, the prairies were somehow not very interesting to me. Ideas to go to the forest for several days, living on grazing, were born precisely from reading such books as, for example, "The Land of Salt Rocks".
Vyacheslav Olegovich, thanks for the article. Personally, I received new information, and at the same time felt nostalgic, recalling my "Indian" adventures ...

And then fried on a twig palm roach or bleak, sometimes perch (it was good to take on the roach eye or on the larva of the caddis flies, which we called "shitik"), mushrooms, berries, roots of reeds (cattail) and arrowhead, baked river oysters ... also bows, arrows with nails, feathers (I had hawk ones!), throwing knives and "lasso" - a simple rope with a long loop, endless swimming, diving, climbing trees, hide and seek and catch-up ...
I think if Breivik came to such children as we were then, he would simply be torn to pieces.

[Pane Kohanku]

starting from Fenimore Cooper and ending with Stanislav Suplatovich

but I've just read "Osceolu", I confess .... I liked the theme of pirates more, so I started with Captain Blood, then "Pirate of Queen Elizabeth" and "Black Corsair" ..

or the caddis larva, which we called "shitik"

the last time I caught him with my father on Khopre in my teens. That was fishing! did not have time to throw; roach, bleak, bream - immediately took Damn, Mikhail, you remember "tasty", you shake your soul!

[Trilobite Master]

In order to become a pirate you need a sea-hawk. And we had only a forest, a river, lakes, swamps, fields and ravines - there was no curse. Therefore, most often we were Indians, knights (here I include both the musketeers and Robinguda ) or Soviet partisans. Specifically, it depended on which movie was shown the day before on TV or in a village club.

[3x3zsave]

Well, even Piglet, finally "decided to run away from home and become a sailor"

[Korsar4]

They found an elephant. So - not in vain.

[3x3zsave]

No, not found.
Found "elephant already sweat". And the pole. And the tail.

[Korsar4]

"Stay, guys, people,
Becoming sailors "(c).

However, this has already occurred.

And this is not yet:

"Do not swear from evil longing,
Today you are drunk without alcohol.
To the mainland, to the mainland
The last caravan is coming "(c)

[Korsar4]

There are more musketeers.

And, if you will, another variation on book children:

[Catfish]

Hi, Nikolay!
Besides Blood, I also had Captain Bernardito Luis el Gorra from Shtilmark's "Heir from Calcutta". And there was also a great article in Around the World called "The Pirate's Round-the-World Raid" about Francis Drake, of course. It was from her that I learned that William Drake's Island was named after his friend William Shakespeare.

[Pane Kohanku]

I learned from it that the island of William Drake was named after his friend William Shakespeare.

And why didn’t Shakespeare say anything, an ungrateful patty hippie?

[Catfish]

Yes, it would be funny to see a pirate tearing off Desdemona’s head. But intrigue, in principle, would not have worked out there, because Iago was not finished to intrigue against the professional adventurer and thug, and (according to rumors) the queen's lover. So the author replaced his friend with a neutral Moor and went into circulation.

[Pane Kohanku]

So the author replaced his friend with a neutral Moor and went into circulation.

now such a replacement would be called not "neutral" but "not politically correct" ..

[Catfish]

Well, I don't think guys like Shakespeare, let alone Drake, had any idea of ​​political correctness. As, indeed, all the "good people" in those days.

[3x3zsave]

I apologize terribly, my dear gangsters, my citizens, but in the realities of the time, you both understand, like my favorite dog in citrus!

[Catfish]

So sho, you hate to say, sho your sabaka is cracking pineapples for my goodness, and is he feeding you swede? And what doesn’t happen only in your Petersburgers, where are we, the small-town bandits.

[3x3zsave]

Oh, wey, reb! This female dog eats even non-kosher pig tails !!! Where is this world heading for ?!

[Catfish]

So I would say where he is heading, but they can still be banned by Benina’s mother, and she, you know, is for character. God forbid!

[3x3zsave]

An interesting etymological fact. In the Murmansk region, the caddis larvae are also called "shitiks".
As for Breivik, there were very "difficult" "Norwegian" teenagers in that camp.

[Trilobite Master]

Greetings, Anton.
In our area, there was also a pioneer camp, and quite a prestigious one. I don’t remember from which enterprise, but the children there were just that “difficult”. There were probably about five hundred children in the camp at the same time. The road to the river went along the fence and these "kids" arranged ambushes for us locals - threw stones, called names, in short, ran into ... After one of ours was smashed with a stone on the head, we declared war on them. There were fewer of us, but we were free, knew the area and were not limited by the daily routine.
It was a real war - without rules, without mercy, implacable and cruel. We quickly weaned them from leaving the camp alone and in small groups, and when they stopped going out, began to penetrate into their territory, attacked the duty attendants at the gate ... Sometimes they fell off behind us, they almost made round-ups in the forest with the help of senior detachments and counselors, a couple of times ours came across to them - they were handed over by m police. But more often we came off, left, hid. It used to be that I could reach with the hand of the one who was looking for me, but he did not see me.
When their shift was over, they threw stones at the convoy of buses on which they drove out, broke several glasses. A showdown with the police was difficult. The result was that they took a promise from us to end the hostilities. I made this promise personally to the head of the police department in the presence of the school principal.
I was 12 years old that year.
I don’t know what would have happened if I met Breivik, but I can say for sure that we wouldn’t go to the rams for slaughter, no one would wait in line. We were brought up on the examples of pioneer heroes, we were smart, brave and reckless, a wild people living according to their own ideas, strength, dexterity, courage, independence were valued among us ... Once again I say, I don’t know what it would be like to meet we are with such a Breivik. But what was there on Utoya would not be exact.

[3x3zsave]

The point is not what would have happened to Breivik, if he had met with reckless teenagers, 30-35 years ago, in the polar taiga (sorry, my experience), but what Breivik was "fighting" against.

[Trilobite Master]

Scum he.
It is more important to me who he "fought" against. Against the weak and unrequited.
Give birth to your children, bring up as you see fit, spend time with them, with their friends, teach, explain, help. Organize a tourist club, I don’t know, a "survivalist club" of some kind, spend your time and energy on making people the way you want them to be - strong, courageous, decisive, independent. Teach them to make a fire, build shelters, get food, conduct war games, such as "Zarnitsa", so that they can act both in a team and autonomously, hide, navigate, attack and defend, walk 20 km a day, cross obstacles ...
I tried to teach my children this. They can do something. They also managed to teach a few things to their friends. - we arranged both "lightning" and hikes with classes, fortunately, there were several adequate parents who hold approximately the same views. But all the same, the level of training is not what we had. Although not the same as the guys on Utoya.

[3x3zsave]

Michael! Let's stop.

Bravo!
Reminded one of the "immortal quotes" of the Russian Internet.

crocodile: I remember, they taught how to put an ant hill on food. If you decently pick ants like that - and dry them by the fire - you get something like long-term meat (protein) flour. Grate slightly, add a little water - and you can fry like meatballs. The taste is unusual, closest to the taste it resembles baked fish sprinkled with lemon. A pair of cutlets is enough to naturally eat.

alex1488: Who did you study for? On the commando?

crocodile:
Worse. We were trained as pioneers, so we would make a birdhouse from the skull of a commando.

Today, 14: 07

,,, and every boy older than 8 has a penknife, but not as a weapon, but as a tool. Arrowheads, in addition to nails, were made from tins and cans. All summer on the river: a bungee, a board on a tree (springboard), the raft on which they set sail. Nda and from a flattened and sharpened aluminum runner sled, a saber was obtained

[bubalik]

,,, the first book about Indians that I read in childhood.

[Trilobite Master]

And you can also recall carbide and magnesium, whips made of some material, such as a rubberized tarpaulin, sharpened spokes with foam rubber blown through aluminum ski poles, trips on ice floes into the ice drift, plastic bags of fertilizers with snow as sledges (a prototype of the current "cheesecakes") ... And it used to sit in a tree all day with an interesting book ... I read "Captain Grant's Children" sitting on a tree ...

[3x3zsave]

Yes, I was about 9 years old when I got my first knife. Let it be folding, let it be penknife, but it was MY knife!

[Catfish]

At the age of ten I already had an "eight", though not a fig shot - neither a store, nor a drummer.

[3x3zsave]

Well, let's face it, uh, something there!
"Each time has its own orders,

[Catfish]

And who is measured, I’m just saying that during the time of my happy childhood it was much easier to get something decent than a knife, and that’s all.

"Each vegetable has its own fruit!" (S. of my friend).

[Undecim]

And instead of my nipple, I had a grease gun with rifle oil, and the rattle was replaced by zinc with cartridges.

[Catfish]

Well, Vic, you finally revealed the family secret of how to raise the same clever and erudite in a child. That's all, I take a nipple and a pack of cartridges, and went into the room to my grandson.

[kalibr]

Well, what I also grew up in communication with the grandfather hard drive M1895 g. And his copper sleeves ...

[Undecim]

his copper sleeves ...
Brass.

[kalibr]

Red copper! Not yellow. I remembered this color well, because there were cartridges from the "little thing" with just yellow funny cartridges.

[Undecim]

next to it were cartridges from the "small" with yellow, cheerful casings.

And it's all brass.

[Catfish]

Good afternoon, Vyacheslav.
Here she is, your childhood "friend". The rifle was developed by John Browning by order of Winchester for a "bunch" of different cartridges, incl. under 7,62x54 mm R.

Below is a conversion into a hunting carbine for the same "three-line" cartridge. Once in the store, sorting through and examining the cabinet with the Winchesters, I found just such a carbine and, luckily, not drilled. I immediately called the All-Russian Research Institute of Sudekspertiza and the guys brought a request for shooting by fly. As you know, there was a lot of cartridges like that, well, they all shot to a complete stupor.

[Catfish]

Failed to stick the second photo

immediately. They fired about such a carbine, though his barrel had already been shot "no matter what," the bullets flew wherever they pleased.

[Phil77]

Good evening, Michael! My God and the article is wonderful, but the comments !!!! As if I dived back to my childhood! It goes without saying that it’s hard to find a Soviet child of 60-70s who did not play noble Indians, but * Defov * films that we watched ?! ?! And the read disheveled books from the Mine-Reed library, Fenimore Cooper ?! Damn, well, we were lucky with childhood.

[Trilobite Master]

Good evening.
Yes, there was a line for good books in libraries. I myself, I remember, went after Fenimore Cooper to one "debtor" to pick up a book and start reading myself ...

[cat Rusich]

Have you read Luis Lamour's Shalako? There the Indians are not "lambs for the slaughter", but "hardened wolves". I liked Tats-a-das-ay-go - the Quick killer (Apache). I read American westerns - I liked them and recommend them to others. There is no "oil", the Wild West is not for romantics who have read Soviet literature. Read about North America by Jack London - he wrote about the "natives" of Oceania. Have you seen the movie "Makena's Gold"? - read the book too ...

[Catfish]

Yes, with regard to the Indians in "Gold McKenna" I agree, there they are much more real than the cinematographic GDR goikomitichi. Well, and Jack London, of course.

[cat Rusich]

I watched the film "Shalako" 1968 Great Britain. Conclusion: either read a book or watch a movie. My advice is to read the book.

[Korsar4]

I know that the rhizomes of cattail are edible, but I have not tried it.
And so much is similar. And without a bow anywhere. Osceola's mask was in elementary class.

Yes, and now - the forest will hide. Even for a little bit.

[Catfish]

Misha, I think that to such children as those you write about, Breivik would come with his fishing rod, sandwiches and ask him to be accepted into their company.
And there, at home on the island, he did what he saw fit to do. Whether he was right or not, the future will show, but even now, something is becoming obvious.

[Catfish]

Vyacheslav Olegovich, good afternoon and best wishes!
I read the material with interest, it's funny that on the part of the whites in this battle there was complete confusion. The only one who really deserves respect is Sergeant McCarthy, so he was awarded fairly, and the rest of the officers had to be driven out of service "horses to graze."

Let me make a small "weapon" addition to your article. Still, without “Colt” and America is not America.

Above the Colt "Frontier" 1873, below the Colt "Peacemaker" 1873, a cavalry model. Both single-action revolvers, .45 caliber, six rounds per drum.
Americans are big fans of shooting this revolver with a "mill", this is when the trigger is cocked with the palm of the left hand, and the finger of the right hand presses the trigger, it turns out almost a machine-gun burst. This method of shooting is illustrated in the excellent film The Magnificent Seven.

[Edward Vashchenko]

Vyacheslav Olegovich,
Thank you, a very interesting article!

[kalibr]

I love, dear Edward, everything connected with the Indians. Wrote a book for children "Indians", was published in St. Petersburg in the Neva Book Company ...

[cat Rusich]

Write about Apaches, Comanches, etc. ... About those who were not "sheep".

[Edward Vashchenko]

They were not all "sheep" - formidable warriors, merciless towards enemies.

[Edward Vashchenko]

Vyacheslav Olegovich,
It’s especially difficult for children to write, it seems to me

[Korsar4]

At one time, everything that Fenimore Cooper could read. Moreover, most often I re-read "Pioneers" - what was at hand. And Mine Reed "The Headless Horseman".

And "White Leader" and "Quarteronka" got caught late. And already with a teenage passion you will not read it.

[voyaka uh]

Very interesting.
Photos of tomahawks, clubs, shoes and clothing of the Indians are wonderful.

Hi Seryozha! Correct: "Willie's patience, patience ... etc." It was he to Martinson, who played Willie Pommer, the son of the co-owner of Pommer & Eckert, and part-time adjutant to Gruppenfuehrer Rummelsburg.
As it was during the conversation at the Lubyanka - Fedotov: "It's an honor for me, Rummelsburg is a strong opponent."
And the general answered him: "I would prefer that he was a weak enemy, but Rummelsburg is a strong enemy ..."
After "You blockhead Stubing" the following followed : "... and as far as I know Rummelsburg, he will hang you, and perhaps even earlier than me." Sumptuously! Classics of the genre!!! Moreover, Fedotov is a real person and even the name in the film is real.

[Phil77]

Of course, it’s an amateur matter: * To whom, to pop, to someone! *. But for me personally, a film for all times from this genre, unconditionally * Seventeen moments of spring *.

First of all, Ha, ha, ha! In pursuit, you must admit that jokes were written about those people to whom people feel sympathy, albeit with irony, but sympathy. But I think we won’t wait about the current jokes! Now I want to turn to you as a specialist. Is it true that armed with SD and the Gestapo stood * Sauer 38H *? I read about this recently, but the source, in a word your word will be more authoritative.

[Catfish]

Sergei, I won't lie about Sauer - I don't know. But I can assume that in the special services of any country, especially during the war, the choice of personal weapons by the employees was at their own discretion. Even in the "Wehrmacht" there was such a variety of brands of pistols both by year of production and by country, so what can we say about the special.
I had no business with this model of Sauer, the machine is relatively rare, but, according to reviews, it was of a successful design and very well made. At least those pistols that were released before the middle of the forty-third year, then the quality of all the weapons went limp. So both in the SD and in the Gestapo there were of course, but I’m hard to say officially according to the rules or not.

[Phil77]

Yes, this article is mentioned about it! At the end of the war, quality began to decline rapidly. About this * 38 * -ke, an article in * Military History *, November issue.

[Catfish]

This machine has one serious drawback - the hidden trigger, and in this he greatly lost to Walter PP and PPK.

[Phil77]

But after all, for hidden wearing, is it the most? Size, I mean. Is there an ideal weapon, yes?

[Catfish]

So for hidden wear, Walter PPK was already much more secretive. And as for the perfect weapon, Surely this is a weapon to which you are accustomed and trust.

[hohol95]

Infantry weapon of the Third Reich. Part 1. Pistols (C B Monitors)
The SA took the gun in September 1937. Police - April 1938.
Since December 1941, it is approved for use in the Wehrmacht.
Until 1945, 265000 units were manufactured. 1943 units were transferred to the Wehrmacht only in 1944 - 65000.
