Ground-breaking ceremony, visitor center . . .

Josiah Red Wolf, five years old in 1877 and the last survivor of the War of 1877, speaks at the ground-breaking ceremony for the visitor center at Big Hole National Battlefield, 1968. Red Wolf lost his mother and sister in the battle. This marked his first return to the site of that tragedy.
