The Battle of Washita and LBH are often compared. Is it a fair comparison? What lessons were or should have been learned?

Beth Dave,
Without looking through the above links I will give 2.
1 Never go looking for a Brevet or a casket, as you may very well find the later. Both Elliott and Custer did. 2 Do a better job of scouting and planning. Custer did not, at either battle.
Regards, Tom
