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.
1:38:05
Sir, formation is ready.
1:38:14
Attention!
1:38:15
-Prepare to mount!
-Present arms!
1:38:19
Mount!
1:38:22
Detail, arms, halt!
1:38:25
'By order of the office
of the President of the United States...
1:38:29
'...all Chiricahua scouts are under arrest...
1:38:32
'...and will be transported
to Fort Marion Prison...
1:38:35
'...Saint Augustine, Florida...
1:38:37
'...with the outlaw Apaches,
led by Goyakla, known as Geronimo!
1:38:42
'The Apache scouts
from the White Mountain...
1:38:44
'...Coyotero and Mescalero tribes
are to return at once...
1:38:48
'...to their reservations.
1:38:50
'They will remain within these boundaries
unless given express permission to travel.
1:38:55
'Their duties for the United States Army
are at an end.
1:38:59
'We thank them for their services.'
