Steve - you would probably like that book I recently reviewed: _Chasing Ghosts_ by Tierney...or, perhaps you have already read it. Anyhow, one of the "heroes" who seemed to get some things right in his approach to the Apaches was Gen. George Crook. _Chasing Ghosts_ gives a few examples of his approach and how it seems to have been lost to history. We forget all the successful counterinsurgency lessons and keep repeating the mistakes it seems.
