[00:15:24]Say good morning to all those families.

[00:15:26]We have five flags here this morning. That's kind of the most flags that I've seen flown uh in a long time.

[00:15:36]around uh any of our Fort Berthal arenas. Uh I think years ago, White Shell used to put up quite a few.

[00:15:45]Um usually it's been about three. Uh most of the celebration grounds on our reservation usually hold about three of them. So, it's good to see five of them being flown.

[00:16:07]All right, gentlemen, if you would kind of ease them into it. Give them some uh veteran songs and then we'll bust out some uh victory songs.

[00:16:30]What a go.

[00:17:01]Song about the Germans.

[00:17:05][screaming] >> [music] [panting] >> Hyal.

[00:23:26]Everybody.

[00:23:58]I know I might.

[00:24:15]That's right.

[00:24:34]Thank you.

[00:24:46]God.

[00:25:30]Ah, thank you much. Thank you singers.

[00:25:34]He's got something up his sleeve. He's talking to the singers here. So, just stay with us right here. stay in the arena. If you can, if you uh just can't go no more, just go ahead and sit the side. You'll be all right. But uh he's up to something. We'll find out what he's up to.

[00:25:53]Yesterday he uh showed a little something that hasn't been done around here for a long long long time. is that they had uh our u councilman in the center and then they had the uh veterans dance on the inside and our families danced on the outside. That was kind to uh those what days where they uh came back from battles and did those u those dances that way.

[00:26:31]I know in the uh grass dance societies, they have a song in there where these uh guys that would were in battle uh would reenact uh what they did in battle. Kind of a uh one of those kinds of dances years ago.

[00:26:52]What you up to?

[00:27:04]So, that's what they're going to do. So, we're going to have all our uh family members circle out on the outside, our uh BFW members and the ones that uh were overseas that were shot upon and they shot in return to reenact uh maybe a story that they uh did. Um, you'll see them like uh um like play out what they did in in a in a portion of where they were at. Maybe they were uh uh behind enemy lines or they were in some place where they had to uh see combat.

[00:28:01]And that's what you're going to witness here today.

[00:28:08]I know the dead grass years ago did that long time ago. I know the analopee society for sure did that um when I was a young guy and didn't really get to witness that. But uh uh they want all the ones that have seen combat uh the ones in yellow. I know my uh grandfather Austin is in there. Uh core usually wears the uh uh Lester Lester uh Cohart is another one.

[00:28:48]So some of these guys are not all like wear yellow jackets, but so going to ask all your family members to come back into the circle and dance on the outside and you can witness what they have seen in battle is uh kind of re what they call a reenactment or to show uh the people what they did in battle. Uh another one right here is uh this gentleman here in the black. Uh he was there four times.

[00:29:19]Uh Cody, Cody is going to ask you to go out in the center as well.

[00:29:28]Any other veterans that have seen combat? They want you in the middle.

[00:29:36]I'm going to put our gold star mother in the middle here this morning.

[00:30:28]So you guys don't go too far after we're all done here uh doing our dances and enjoying ourselves. The uh some of the families will uh share breakfast and other families have giveaways.

[00:30:41]So, uh, All right, he's ready.

[00:31:30]Again, we want our family members to dance on the outside along with our uh our uh other veterans on the outside as well.

[00:31:40]So, anytime you're ready, singers. Okay.

[00:31:59]Hey.

[00:32:13]Hey.

[00:32:15]Hey, [music] Hey Everybody Come on.

[00:33:30][music] Hallelujah.

[00:33:50]Hey, hey, some of these things are pretty hard to do for some of these veterans.

[00:34:16]because it's going to take them back to some of them places where they didn't want to be in any first damn place.

[00:34:23]But they did things that they had to do because they love this country.

[00:34:28]Whatever the reason that they served for whatever reason they had to they had to go in.

[00:34:34]I'm pretty pretty sure that most of these guys didn't have to be drafted.

[00:34:41]They served this country because we loved our home.

[00:34:51]So this is also a part of healing for our veterans.

[00:34:56]A lot of these gentlemen and these ladies suffer from PTSD.

[00:35:03]And we want to say thank you for for all you have done.

[00:35:08]>> All right everybody.

[00:35:20]Victory song.

[00:35:23]>> Everybody dancing.

[00:35:39]Hey, you're not Yeah.

[00:36:08]Where are you?

[00:36:21]Highle.

[00:36:46]Hallelujah.

[00:36:49]>> [music] >> Higher.

[00:37:03][music] >> [music] >> Ah hey [screaming] it Where are you? Where are you?

[00:38:06]Where are they? Where are we?

[00:38:17]Where are you?

[00:38:32]High.

[00:38:57]Hey.

[00:38:59]Hey way [crying] are aha.

[00:39:30]Where are they? Where are they? Where are we where I are?

[00:39:57]Thank you singers. Thank you again. I want to wish uh our singers, our veterans, all the men folk here happy Father's Day and get our day started out right.

[00:40:17]We have five flags here this morning and I believe uh probably all of them will have their giveaways. Also, we have feeds going on too this morning. Uh the Beaks family is going to serve breakfast at the big tent on behalf of late Tom Beaks, United States Marine Corps. Uh also the other flags that went up this morning if you just getting here and you're a little bit late. Roger, United States Air Force. Uh, Corporal Nathan Good uh, United States Army, Aaron Abby, Senior, uh, United States Army, and, uh, Ronald Sammy Little, United States Army. Those are the flags that went up this morning.

[00:41:57]Oh, good morning.

[00:42:06]The good iron family will be also feeding this morning. They're going to donate when the flags come down. Kind of that traditional older way of doing things. Uh they'll feed this morning with the families back here at the tent and then they'll do their gift giving when the flags come down at 5.

[00:43:34]Valarian, come on over this way.

[00:46:48]This one here, this first one they're going to start with is uh uh Sammy and they uh the men folk are up here in front, but they want all the veterans to follow this uh war bonnet and then the family will dance behind our veterans just like how they did yesterday. So veterans come on over this way.

[00:47:17]Uh, let's come down here.

[00:47:34]Hire me.

[00:48:17]What I remember of Sammy is a very traditional man. Uh when we were used to be down here on the bottom, he used to come down and talk a lot and uh used the language.

[00:48:31]He was born to Albert Little Al Senior in Josephine uh Ironbull on February 4th, 1940 and he passed in uh October 25th, 2005 2003.

[00:48:46]Uh Sammy joined the United States Army in January 17, 1964 and was discharged on January 11th of 1969 as an E4 specialist. Sammy was one of the first organizers of the Legion Post 303 and 303 was from this district right here um and was also uh active member of the American Indian Movement. We're going to read it on a little bit more here, but we're going to dance first.

[00:49:19]Okay, we'll let you guys uh uh go around here and we'll talk a bit more about him. So, singers, if you would please, a song about the army.

[00:49:37]>> [screaming] >> God, high glory. Hallelujah.

[00:49:57]Again, Hey, hey, hey.

[00:50:54]Hey.

[00:50:56]Hey.

[00:51:13]Okay.

[00:51:23]Hey, I'm going to go God.

[00:52:14]I got it. I got it.

[00:52:52]Thank you all singers. Thank you.

[00:52:58]As the family's getting ready here, uh we have a little bit more to read on here. So, uh, Sammy, he went to college over at the, uh, university, State University of Dickinson.

[00:53:12]And, uh, Sammy was always wanted to be, uh, teaching in the profession and received a bachelor's degree of arts in elementary education from Dickinson in 1983.

[00:53:25]And there he received his educational goal. Uh he continued to teach his Native American culture uh which included the new the songs, traditions and spiritual ways. Uh I guess you would say our belief ways and lifestyles.

[00:53:44]He also uh was uh in his spirit.

[00:53:48]>> Good morning.

[00:53:51]uh his spiritual ways of life continued through his uh with his family uh through Sundance families and through the Sundance ways uh for 38 plus years.

[00:54:05]Sammy also was uh worked with the three affiliated tribes which today we call the MA nations on the repatriation program. Uh bringing many ancestors back to the homelands for rearial.

[00:54:21]Um, back then it was just a probably a get getting started back then and they would go to these universities, uh, museums, um, these different places and and bring back these artifacts and skeletal remains of these individuals uh, from our uh, people here.

[00:54:49]Uh Sammy married Evelyn Crowart and uh with this reunion or this union, excuse me, this union uh there was uh Leon Page Little Owl, the late Peter Little Owl and Joanie Little Owl. Sammy also raised Rose M. Kosal High and the late Norman Thomas Kros High as his own. And uh friends and relatives. Um they said when he uh they did his burial, he wanted it this way that they went the Sueway, but he was a child of the Metroas uh people. So they would like to have all the Flintai people come on over and receive these. And then you can split it up amongst the Flint Knight people. So all you Flintite people, come on over this way and acknowledge these gifts.

[00:56:04]And then you can split it up the way uh the way you want. Whether you want to buy them from each other or Yeah. Take all that. He said, "Not just one. Take it all. Then you can split it later."

[00:56:18]Looks like the only two flint knives here. I guess there's some others sitting around here. I know they are.

[00:57:05]also like to have the flag bearer.

[00:57:07]Please come forward. Thank you very much, Mr. Flag Bear, Aaron Abby Jr., this young gentleman.

[00:57:20]very uh honored that this young man has called upon this flag.

[01:46:15]Now we're sitting here talking about our aches and pains. Yeah, it's crazy when you get a little older.

[01:46:24]Never thought about this. I always wish good things for people that to grow old, but we never say grow old grace gracefully with no pains and aches.

[01:46:38]Yeah, we don't say that. So, I learned my lesson. The gentleman who was married to Verna Tffy uh Glennmore and uh you got to say this right. Busby.

[01:46:51]Busby. If you don't say that right, you're gonna get in trouble. Yeah. Busby over in Montana and he spent his remaining years over there in lame deer res lame deere Montana on the northern Cheyenne reservation.

[01:47:05]He was a member of the Northern Cheyenne Morning Star Chapter Vietnam era Veterans Organization. There he served as commander several times at the American Legion Post 77 at Lameir, Montana. He was embraced as a son to Charles and Annie Brady in 1996.

[01:47:25]After four years of orientation, Roger was sworn in as the third headsman of the Crazy Dog Society of the Northern Cheyenne Traditional Military Society.

[01:47:36]There too, his Indian name was Fighting Bear. And I'm not I can't say it in Cheyenne. So, uh I don't want to attempt it and mess it up for them.

[01:47:49]Nakamez.

[01:47:51]Nakami is his name. My first Cheyenne words right there. Thank you. Uh Roger was deeply commended as a northern Cheyenne traditional and ceremonial ways and he lived that way. He lived that way. Practiced his Indian ways that way uh the rest of his days. Uh Roger was also a visionary man, a businessmind orientated and had strong beliefs in the values of education. He devoted his life to helping others. At the time of his passing in February 17, 2010, he brought him home to Twin Bees, North Dakota. and there he had uh uh since retired after 25 years of service working at the Cole Strip School District where he was a homeschool coordinator.

[01:48:40]One of Roger's final wishes was to be buried right here in Twinbs in his homelands and his final resting places over at the Burr family cemetery.

[01:48:51]The children and family of Roger Dale Oldmouse wish to express their defic sincere and appreciation to the committee for embracing, honoring and paying tribute to this man and his service as his flag is flown over our encampment.

[01:49:08]These are his homelands and we did not forget that. So we acknowledge this and we say thank you to his families here in North Dakota.
