Native Patriots
May 24, 2017
Our May/June issue includes a story on our Native American residents' rich history of military service. Bernie Hunhoff visited the Standing Rock Reservation to visit with its veterans and their descendants. He took several photos on his trip — too many to print. Here are some of his extras.
-
Flags fly on a butte above the little reservation town of Rock Creek. -
Ivan Brownotter and Joseph Montana pose in front of a World War I doughboy statue designed by artist E.M Viquesney. -
Several hundred graves lie in a church cemetery at Thunder Butte. Wood crosses mark most of the burial sites. -
Many of the grave markers bear the family name of Clown, descendants of Moses Clown, a young army private from Thunder Butte who fought in World War I. -
Moses Clown, a nephew to Crazy Horse, died in 1918 in a battle in France. He received a hero’s burial in South Dakota.
