IUFLA Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) Another interesting thing they had on "Peyton's Places" last night... Adam Vinatieri's great great grandfather was a band leader in the 1870s for General George Custer...they played before the troops went into battle with the Indians... But, for the foray into the Little Big Horn, they needed the band's horses, so they left the band behind...
