After dividing his forces into three units, Custer with 5 companies attempted to circle the village in order to attack it from the rear (he had no idea how large the village was). Trapped by the counterattacks led by Crazy Horse and Gall, Custer formed a defensive position. Note the letters of the companies: C, E, F, I, L. The logic of conduction (of dreamwork) native to electracy suggests that these letters could possible spell a word. The word is FICEL (ficelle in French). Ficelle is an important critical and theoretical term in my career field. This is an example of meaning created at the point of reception (no one "sent" this message to me).

I assume the diagram recording the movement of forces during the battle is also potentially significant, but I have not explored yet.
