Washita Battlefield

Aired On: 2009-11-21

The Washita Battlefield National Historic Site near Cheyenne is such a beautiful and peaceful place that it's hard to imagine the horrific scene that unfolded here on November 27, 1868. It’s a story that everyone should know about, Oklahomans for sure, but all Americans should know what happened here because it did change our way of life forever on the southern plains.
