USA on Mars

What if....Lt Colonel George Custer went to Mars with the 5th Cavalry....


A wonderful idea by Roderick Campbell here: 

     Custer was actually one of the few survivors of the Little Big Horn. This combined with his political leanings and glory hounding caused some consternation with the War Department. Custer was quietly shipped off to Mars at the head of a troop of 5th Cavalry where he would be out of the way. On a routine patrol he finds himself once again surrounded by angry native forces.

Roderick's excellent 15mm conversions

And some 28mm USMC Infantry on patrol (on Venus in this case)
