The History Guy remembers a desperate attempt to rescue soldiers besieged by Apaches which results in the first Medal of Honor by date of action, and starts the Apache War. It is history that deserves to be remembered.

The historical photographs are taken from different periods of the Apache/frontier. They are intended for illustration, but do not depict the actual Bascom affair, as no known photographs of the actual event exist.

All events are described for educational purposes and are presented in historical context.
