No decision is so fine as to not bind us to its consequences.
No consequence is so unexpected as to absolve us of our decisions.

The abbey of Monte Cassino, about 130 km southeast of Rome.
Built in 529 on the ruins of a temple of Apollo. It has been destroyed four times, in 577, 881, 1349, and the last time in 1944, as it held a central position in the Battle for Rome. It was pulverized in bombing by the Allies as they, mistakenly, thought the Axis forces used it as a lookout post.

Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument
45°34′13″N, 107°25′39″W
Established: January 29, 1879
Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument preserves the site of the June 25, 1876 Battle of the Little Bighorn, near Crow Agency, Montana, U.S.A. The battle is also known as "Custer's Last Stand" and the "Battle of the Greasy Grass."
For over 100 years this site served as a memorial to the U.S. soldiers of the 7th Cavalry who perished there along with their commander, General George Armstrong Custer. Over the years it expanded to a National Cemetary and included graves of soldiers fallen in other wars. The cemetary holds the remains of numerous other battles and skirmishes of the Indian Wars, as well as from the Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II and the Korean War. The site of a related military action led by Marcus Reno and Frederick Benteen is also part of the national monument, but is about three miles (five km) southeast of the Little Bighorn battlefield.
In 1991 the battlefield site was officially designated the "Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument" (formerly "Custer Battlefield National Monument" and a bill was signed into law broadening the site to honor the Native Americans also killed in the battle—a combined Lakota-Northern Cheyenne and Arapaho force. National Park Service personnal and Native Americans historically connected to the site have been working in close conjuction to further develop this site in a manner which will honor all war dead and ensure that both sides of the story are told.
