The Original American Hero, Sioux Chief Sitting Bull.  During a raid on his camp by General George Armstrong Custer, with bullets kicking up the dirt around his feet, he calmly walked out onto the field of battle toward his aggressors.  There, with three other men of his camp, he pulled out his pipe and smoked.  After he finished, he methodically picked up a stick to clean out his pipe, and walked back to the rest of his people.  His nephew, White Bull, called it “the most courageous deed possible.”
