From Wikipedia: "George Armstrong Custer was a United States Army officer and cavalry commander in the American Civil War and the Indian Wars. His distinguished war record has been overshadowed in history by his role and fate in the Indian Wars. Custer was defeated and killed at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876, against a coalition of Native Americans led by Crazy Horse, Gall and Sitting Bull. This confrontation has come to be popularly known in American history as Custer's Last Stand." Clock depicts the general in sepia tones, surrounded by Roman numerals.
