THE FINEST LIGHT CAVALRY IN THE WORLD

Red indians at the station battle

THE BATTLE OF THE WABASH RIVER — aka St. CLAIR'S DEFEAT, 1791 — is infamous for being the most severe defeat ever suffered by the US Government at the hands of Native American Indian warriors. Of the 1,000 US troops General Arthur St. Clair led into the battle, only 48 US troops are known to have survived unharmed.
As a result of circumstances surrounding the battle, President George Washington forced General St. Clair to submit his immediate resignation.
The victorious Native American warriors were lead by Chief Little Turtle, Miami, Chief Blue Jacket, Shawnee, and Chief Buckongahelas, Delaware.
