On September 4, 1886...
1:36:27
...Geronimo and 34 Chiricahua men,
women and children...

1:36:30
...surrendered to General Nelson Miles.
1:36:33
As he handed over his weapons,
Geronimo simply said:

1:36:37
'Once I moved about like the wind.
Now I surrender and that is all. '

1:36:43
He refused any further conversation
with the General.

1:37:24
After arranging Geronimo's
final surrender...

1:37:27
...Lieutenant Gatewood was transferred
to a remote garrison in Northern Wyoming.

1:37:33
His continued presence would have been
an embarrassing reminder...

1:37:37
...that the United States Army had failed
to defeat a band of 35 Apache.

1:37:42
Instead of being rewarded with a medal
for his heroic efforts...

1:37:46
...Lieutenant Charles Gatewood
was sentenced to obscurity.
