In the summer of 1864, with the Civil War raging to the East, the Lakota Sioux, Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians launched a devastating series of raids on American settlers in Colorado, Kansas and Nebraska.
General Samuel R Curtis had been given the task of launching a punitive campaign against the Indians and decided to raise a company of Pawnees to assist in his expedition against the hostile Indians.
The Pawnees, who were the traditional enemies of the Lakota Sioux and their allies, had endured attacks for many years at the hands of the Lakota making them more than enthusiastic about being able to assist in fighting their old adversaries.
The legacy of the Pawnee Scouts is one of effective and brave service to the United States especially in the settlement of the state of Nebraska and in allowing the completion and safe operation of the Union Pacific Railroad.
