I would like to add to this discussion. I also did consider the Colonel being based off of Custer, as they do look very similar. Also, all this information i'm about to state came from my U.S history class.. Just like Custer, he attacked the Lakota, which is what Little Creek's tribe name was. He also compared him to the Cheyenne tribe and another tribe, I'm not too sure which one, my DVD is badly scratched and I cant find the scene on YouTube. But to skip ahead, the Lakota are camped beside a creek.. History nerd are you getting something? Now for those of you who know, Custer dies at that battle. HOWEVER, this is a kids movie, not everyone goes by the story. Pocahontaus was 12 and John Smith was 27! So of course we see him later on after the battle staring Spirit down. Anyways, this is just a conspiracy, maybe some ideas for those of you wanting to create new characters with a juicy calvary background

ny people don't know that after the battle of Little Big Horn, Colonel Custer's wife had the government find his body and bring it back to west point to have a prober barryal for him. His grave is still in the west point armed guard cematary where he and his wife lie in peace. He is general Custer because after you are killed In acton or die of old age you will be promoted to the next rank.

The Colonel is based after Custer and his record of not liking the Native Americans.

I'm just saying his was based off of George Armstrong Custer, not saying that it's really him.

The Colonel was originally based off of George Armstrong Custer right before of Little Big Horn. The only difference is the Dreamworks team changed his hair color.
