Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Although the history of the Montana National Guard is still being written as its members continue to serve around the globe, the seeds of this long-standing military organization germinated in 1867, when the territory's acting governor organized a rag-tag militia force in response to widespread fear of impending Indian uprisings against the white population. It was a fiasco that cost the government dearly. Yet from that humble beginning arose a far more worthy band of soldiers, serving honorably during natural disasters, the Spanish-American War, the Mexican border crises, labor disputes, both World Wars, the Cold War, the Vietnam War, Desert Storm, and more.Splendid Service recounts the proud moments and important achievements, and the painful failures and heart-breaking sacrifices, that the Montana National Guard experienced from 1867 to the end of the twentieth century. It chronicles how state, national, or international developments in politics, law, funding, public sentiment, and more affected the role Guardsmen played in assisting or protecting local communities, federal and state agencies, and the United States. The volume describes the process of repeated reorganizing and restructuring as state and federal governments sought to meet new challenges. It highlights some of the individuals whose contributions fostered the success of Montana's armed forces, and describes the difficulties its leaders faced, including lack of funding and supplies, inadequate facilities and training camps, and the state's large geographic area. Other aspects of military life, such as the daily camp routine, drills and training, competitions, and advances in equipment are detailed as well. The long-standing and commendable service of the Montana National Guard has indeed left a legacy for future generations.

Following the Sioux War of 1876, thousands of Northern Cheyenne Indians surrendered to the federal government and all but a few were moved from their homes to a reservation in present-day Oklahoma. The settlement created by the few who stayed sparked years of conflict and bloodshed between the Northern Cheyenne and territorial ranchers and townspeople. This work chronicles the formation of the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation from its origins to its final resolution in 1900, addressing issues such as the permanence of executive-order reservations compared to treaty reservations, and tribal economic development involving water and mineral rights. …
