While Benteen joined Reno's bloodied command four miles to the south, the warriors concentrated against Custer and the five companies under his immediate command, about 210 men. Not one survived. The most famous of the hundreds of depictions of Custer's Last Stand is the lithograph that hung in countless saloons. It contains many inaccuracies, but it is the one the public knows best.
