From "The Saga of Sully Flats," by Adeline S. Gnirk, published 1977, by Gregory Times-Advocate, Gregory,South Dakota, pages 133-134.

Jean Baptiste Columbe was born in Alsace-Lorraine, France, January 4, 1843. He sailed to Canada when hewas a young man. His name was "Americanized" to John Baptiste Colombe after he had migrated to the U.S. Hebrought a crew of 12 Frenchmen to the Missouri River, along the Gregory County border, to cut wood on theislands and bluffs. Fuel was needed for the steamboats. They navigated the Missouri River which had severalports of landing up the Gregory County coast. These wood choppers were termed "wood chucks". They settledon LaRoche Island which was renamed Colombe Island. Evidently, they worked on up toward Colorado as Johnwas appointed town Marshall in 1862 in Denver, Colorado.

John B. had married Josephine Dorion about 1860, near what was later to be Yankton, S.D. She was thedaughter of Pierre Dorion, one of the oldest fur traders in the region.

John B. and Josephine made their home in Denver, Colorado, where three children were born to them:Jennie, John Jr. and David.

In 1871 the Colombe family journeyed on down to the Rosebud Landing at the mouth of the Landing Creek,in the northwest corner of Gregory County. They settled here. Rounding up a caravan of freighter wagons, theywent into business hauling freight, mail and supplies which had been brought up the river by steamboat, overlandto western Dakota.

Eventually John Baptiste and Josephine made their headquarters on Colombe Island, where they occupied alog cabin. The land on the island, plus land in Section 1 and 17 of Turney Twp. became his by right ofpossession in the 1904 opening of the Rosebud Reservation to homesteaders. One spring the river gorged withice and the resultant boom projected such a noise, it was feared the log cabin had been struck. While living onthe island, David was bitten by a rattlesnake. John B. promptly incised the bite with his knife and bade Chris toquickly mount his horse and find some wild snake root growing on the island. Chris fetched the snake root whichJohn B. chewed into a pulp and laid upon the bite.

Josephine was a midwife and delivered many babies to the new homesteaders. Josephine Dorion Colombedied in 1883 when the twins, William and Minnie, were three years old. Jean Baptiste Colombe lived with hisdaugter Jennie Mullen at Rosebud for the time they were located there. He was eighty years old when he died in1923.

John B. and Josephine Colombe were the parents of 9 children: Jennie (1861), John (1863), David, whowere born in Denver; Josephine, Ed, Emily, Chris (1878) and the twins, William and Minnie (1880) were bornnear Landing Creek and Turney Twp.____________________________________________________________________

Frank Mullen was one of the honored pioneers of South Dakota where he lived for more than 30 years. Formore than two decades he held the responsible office of Clerk of the Rosebud Indian Agency, with headquartersin Rosebud, S.D.

Mr. Mullen was a native of the great "Lone Star" state of the Union. He was born July 6,1848, in SanAntonio, Bexar County, Texas, to Ralph and Caroline (Black) Mullen. Ralph Mullen was from North Carolinaand Caroline Black was from the state of Virginia. Both were of Irish descent. Ralph Mullen was a lawyer andearly settler in Texas where they lived until their deaths on their plantation. It was said his securities and holdingstotaled $1,000,000 at his death, but confederate money had no value in the north.

Frank Mullen went to schools in Austin, Texas and in New York. He was only fifteen years of age when hewas appointed Clerk to the Quartermaster's Dept. of the Confederate Army in 1863. The Civil War 1861-1865was being fought between the States at that time. Frank was attending school in New York when he received theappointment. He was unable to get back to San Antonio through the Union lines, so he sailed from Paris, Franceand made his way to New Orleans and back to Texas. During 1864-65 her served as Captain and AssistantQuartermaster of the Confederacy.

At the close of the war in 1865 Frank Mullen was appointed Clerk in the same department of the Unionsevice. He served from 1866-1869. From 1870-1872 he entered into a business in the city of San Antonio. In1872 he came as a pioneer to the great undivided territory of Dakota where he was employed as a surveyor by theNorthern Pacific Railroad Company of North Dakota until 1874. He then transferred to Yankton, S.D.

Frank and Jennie Mullen came to the Rosebud Territory in 1880 and built a log cabin in Scissons Township.Jennie's parents were living at Rosebud Landing at this time.

In 1883 Frank Mullen became affiliated with the Spotted Tail Agency. He was appointed clerk and theagency's name was changed to the Rosebud Agency at Rosebud, S.D. Three children were born to Frank andJennie Mullen at Rosebud: Amy (1886-1948); Norah (1888-1926); and John, born June 24, 1894.

July 1904 Frank and Jennie Mullen and their three children moved to the Lucas area west of the futureMullen, S.D. They settled on John's allotment in the NW 1/4 of Section 9, Scissons Twp. A beautiful home, theshowplace of the new country, was built by Frank and Jennie. Material for the building of the house waspurchased in Platte, S.D. It was moved by horses or mules and wagon overland and ferried across the river by ahand-rowed skiff that was rowed by Les Cagley. The furnace boiler posed a big problem as it was almost tooheavy for the skiff.

The house was built with large dimension timbers, wood siding, hardwood floors, and cedar shingles thatwere individually hand-dipped in paint. The carpenters were the Merritt Bros. and Maggrett. The rock, sand andgravel for the foundation was hauled from land southwest of what is currently the Fred Kerner land. It wasapproximately a four story house: a full attic, 4 bedrooms and bath on the second floor; on the main floor was akitchen and pantry, dining and living room, and a library. The living room boasted a beautiful fireplace with anornamental mantel. The fireplace was protected with a screen and the floor in front of the fireplace was finishedin mable stone. The library contained ceiling high shelved of books, complemented by a big work desk. Oakwoodwork and doors, and maple flooring completed the decor of the first floor. An open stairway led to thebedrooms. A full basement housed the machine utilizing high-test gas to generate electric power for the lights,hot water heater, cook stove and hot water heating system. Water was piped into the kitchen and bathroom. Abalcony and porch surounded the east and south sides of the house.

The house at that time cost about $10,000. It was probably built to resemble Frank's boyhood home on theplantation in San Antonio, Texas.

Many parties and dances were held there for the community. Important people, politicians, senators, and agovernor were entertained there. The dignity and opulence of the south were brought to this wild west country byFrank Mullen.

Mr. Mullen served as Land Commisioner at Burke for a short time and then became affiliated with the LucasState Bank. The Lucas State Bank was opened for business in 1907 with L.S. Lillibridge, President, and FrankMullen, Cashier. During 1908-1909 it was owned by Frank Mullen and Wm. Davison. Mr. Mullen operated thebank, and Mr. Davison ran the store. Frank Mullen was also the Notary Public at Burke and his son John Mullenwas the mail carrier from Mullen to Lucas in the years 1918-27.

Jennie Mullen died June 13, 1912. Frank Mullen died July 3, 1931 at Lucas, S.D.Frank and Jennie Mullen were the parents of three children who grew into adulthood: Amy (Mrs. John

Dion), Norah (Mrs. James Fox), and John (Jack) Mullen.__________________________________________________________________

In 1870 he engaged inbusiness in the city of San Antonio, that state, continuing operations there until 1872, when he came as a pioneerto the great undivided territory of Dakota, where he was in the employ of the Northern Pacific Railroad Companyuntil 1874, when he took up his residence at the old Spotted Tail Indian agency, with whose affairs he becameidentified. On the 23d of August, 1883, he was appointed clerk at this agency, whose name had been changed toRosebud its present cognomen. and he has since remained incumbent of this office, in which he has given mostdiscriminating and acceptable service.

Levi Trudell and David Wells two Santee Indians who were arrested in a drunken brawl at the Klondikehotel, had a friendly little hearing before Commissioner Anderson Wednesday morning. He listenedsympathetically the halting stories of the red men - how sorry they were, how it was their first offense, how theyhad been drugged by wicked companions into doing wrong, how they would never do it again etc., etc. Helectured them solemnly on the evil effects of bad whiskey, and released them on good behavior on their ownrecognizsances threatening to send them to jail on bread and water if they did not remain good Indians._______________________________________________________________

INDIAN LIQUOR CASES ARE AS NUMEROUS AS EVERAlthough the federal court docket is now clear of cases wherein a half hundred people are charged with

selling liquor to the Indians, the outlook is that there will be quite as many cases by the next term of court whereinthe indictments will be for introducing liquor upon the Indian reservations. At present twenty Indians are held tothe grand jury upon that charge.

The last Indians to be locked up in the Douglas county jail were the twelve who arrived Saturday from theSantee reservation in the custody of Deputy Marshall Allen. He arrested the dozen Indians Thursday and Fridaythey were arraigned before Commissioner Chambers of Fort Niobrara. In default of $1000 bonds each they werebrought to Omaha and locked up. The prisoners are Jessie Redwing, Henry Wabashaw, Edward Taylor, DanielGraham, James Brant, Charles Bingham, Willie Moose, Joe Yellowfeather, Amos Weston, Levi Trudell, JosephSaul, William Shaver._______________________________________________________________________

HOLLOW HORN BEAR AT INDIAN BUREAUCHIEF ORATOR OF ROSEBUD INDIANS S DEMANDING ANNUITIESA Fortune DelayedThe bureau has been holding out on his tribe some $300,000 of money which the tribe thinks ought to be

distributed to minor children. It represents part payment for the lands of the Rosebud reservation, the departmentmaintaining that it would be a waste of the money to turn over their shares to the minor children. The law,however, provides for the distribution, and the Indians want the cash. Hollow Horn Bear hopes to take homeabout 50,000 copies of his picture on the $5 certificates.

Along with Hollow Horn Bear is a delegation of Sioux, one of whom is Chief Good Voice. Oddly enough,Good Voice is no orator at all; he grunts occaisionally, but Hollow Horn Bear does the talking. Reuben QuickBear, High Pipe, John Colombe, Eagle Horse and Stranger Horse are the others of the delegation.

Colombe is a thrifty aborigine. He owns more land than he can tell about. The government gave him 640acres, his wife 320, and each child 160 acres, and Colombe has never got far enough in mathematics to be able tofigure all the holds in the family. He lives on a 20-acres piece at the corner of his estate, and rents the rest towhite men. "White man works for me," he says disdainfully as he cranks up the carburetter of his auto; for heowns and drives a machine.__________________________________________________________________

TRIED TO LASSO HIMWell Known Man Came to Grief While Trying to Stop a Drunken ManLamro, May 23 - While riding on horseback and striving to lasso a man from a swiftly-moving buggy on the

main business street fo Lamro, "Dave" Colombe, a well known resident of Lamro and the man in whose honor thenew Tripp county town of Colombe was named, was thrown from his horse and badly injured. The man in thebuggy was intoxicated and was driving his horse at breakneck speed up and down the main business street to thegreat danger of the inhabitants when Colombe appeared upon the scene.

Realizing that something must be done at once to stop the reckless driver before someone was injured orkilled, he climbed upon a "cow" pony which was hitched on the street and started in pursuit. He uncoiled thelariat from its place at the saddle and attempted to lasso the drunken man. In rounding a corner while engated inthe pursuit, Colombe's horse stepped into a posthole and fell, turning clear over and catching Colombe under thesaddle, the cantle striking him in the chest. He was bandaged and taken to Dallas, where it was found that hisshoulder blade had been broken and he had sustained other injuries.________________________________________________________________

He was influential and instrumental in having thetrack bed laid out west for the Chicago Northwestern Railway. Besides boarding the men, he contracted horsesand equipment to build the railroad bed. He sold the townsite of Colome to prospective inhabitants. He built hisown home in 1908 overlooking the town that had been named for him. Four children were born to them on theranch: their first child a daughter died at birth. Grace (Ritts), Birdie (McMurray) and Theodore.

Page 257Here, in their home [home of Margaret Langdeau and George Pete], took place the infamous, bloody dance

of Chris Colombe fame. Chris had captured his love, Emma Schunk, and ridden away with her after one of thebloodiest brawls in the history of Gregory County. George had been knifed in the abdomen. Margaret had sewedhim up and sat upon him, which might well have been the saving of his life. __________________________________________________________________

It was this same Fourth cavalry, in which Lawton was a first lieutenant, that 25 years ago swept up the revoltof Crazy Horse in the Black Hills and was a part of the force which compelled that able warrior to surrender.

The family of Trooper Colombe on his mother's side were among the captives which Lieutenant Lawtonhelped to guard, for the Brule Sioux had taken the warpath with the Cheyennes, and General McKenzie crushedthem utterly in a desperate and trying midwinter campaign.

This trooper son of a Brule Sioux mother was not born at that time, but he often heard the warriors tellcampfire tales of the great raid of the soldiers in blue and of the summary punishment which smote the Sioux andCheyennes.

Lawton, already a veteran and distinguished officer, was then renowned among the Indians of Dakota,Arizona and New Mexico as a fighter and a foe man who did not know what it meant to let go when he startedafter a hostile party. And Trooper Colombe, as a tousle headed youngster scampering around the agency, hadlearned to fear the name of the cavalry lieutenant as a sort of Indian "bogy man."

After many years it came about that this boy, now grown straight and stalwart man in the early twenties,enlisted in the regular army of the United States and was assigned to the Fourth cavalry. He was so efficient asoldier and so fearless and disciplined a fighter that General Lawton chose him to one of his personal escort orbodyguard throught that thunderbolt campaign across the mountains and morasses of Luzon which broke the backof Aguinaldo's rebellion and which was by far the most brilliant and fruitful operation of the war.

It was a startling series of coincidences in itself that by Lawton's side there fought and dared for the old flag atribesman of his former quarry on the plains and deserts of the west; that the guidons of the old Fourth cavalryblazed the line of their killing jungle forays, and the blood kin of the lad who flashed saber and cracked carbinewith Lawton in the islands half around the world had felt the smiting hand of the leader when those same glorioustroop guidons followed in the charge.

But these things were only the setting for the scene of tragic destiny when death held the center of the stage atSan Mateo.

Trooper Colombe has written a simply told story of the climax to one of his old teachers at the CarlisleIndian school, of which he was a pupil. This is how he words a description of the event whose dramatic powercould not be overdrawn:

"On the 18th of December 1899, we started away from Manila about 6 o'clock in the evening. We went allnight in the rain and reached the edge of the mountains about 3 o'clock in the morning.

"But Major General Lawton made us wait until about 6 o'clock before we started down the hill to meet ourhot lead and give our good friends hot lead in return. And maybe we did not give it to them.

"We fought three long hours and hard before we made the blacks run from their breastworks, and, above all,we had to cross a river before we could reach the town, and after we got into town we had to fight our way to theother end of it.

24

"The blacks fought hard, because they thought they had us on the run, but there is no run in us. We lostabout 18 men in that fight.

"General Lawton was killed about 20 yards from where I was shooting at a man in a tree, and I think he wasthe very man who killed the general. But we kept shooting until he fell from the tree. I don't think he will live totell the tale to his friends that he killed our good general."

That is all, but the narrative could not be improved by any attempt at "fine writing."Trooper Colombe uses only nine words two syllables long in telling how the death of Lawton was avenged.

All the rest is monosyllabic. This is in Trooper Colombe's literary style, and it has impressive merits.The young trooper's record at Carlisle was an excellent one. He was at the school nearly four years, entering

Oct. 19, 1895, and leaving to enlist in the regular service on May 20, 1899.Major Pratt, the superintendent of the Carlisle school, furnished the following information about his former

pupil, who has so singularly linked himself with General Lawton's fate:"Colombe was a good, steady fellow, who never gave me the least troubl. He did his work well and never

made any complaints. He was in charge of the bakery, quite a responsible position, with three of the boys underhim.

"His record as a student was commendable. He was advanced one grade each year of his stay, which is allthat is expected of boys, and seemed to appreciate the advantages offered him.

"He is not a full blooded Indian, as his father was a white trader at the Rosebud agency, North Dakota, andhis mother a Sioux. So William did not have any war paint and feathers to put off when he came to the school,and we have no pictures of him before and after taking. He is 23 years of age.

"Fourteen of our boys are now serving Uncle Sam, and we hear of are making good records. I have receivedletters from several of them. I sent a bundle of them to Washington as showing how our Indians are revealingthemselves as soldiers. Among the letters was one from William Colombe. They were turned over to AdjutantGeneral Corbin, who thought them so interesting that the gave them to the secretary of war. The secretary, inturn, gave them to the president, who indorsed these favorable opinions by reading them all through."

The story told by Colombe of his part in avenging Lawton's death is very striking, and there is no reason fordoubting it.___________________________________________________________________

From: "Native Americans in the Spanish American War," by Jon Ault.

Students and alumni from Carlisle maintained a significant presence in the Army, as well. In November1899, a veteran of the Philippine-American War named Abram L. Mumper visited the Carlisle campus and spokecandidly with the students operating the printing press. According to an article appearing in The Indian Helper on17 November, "Mr. Mumper believes there will be no Waterloo or Gettysburg, but there will be a system ofwarfare continued for a long time which will take thousands of men and money to conquer." Despite this grim(and prescient) prognosis, Major William Ennis, the recruiting officer in Harrisburg, visited the school thefollowing month, and was able to enlist several older male students who later served in infantry, cavalry, andartillery units. One Carlisle graduate, William Colombe, served in Troop I of the Fourth Cavalry Regiment. AtSan Mateo on 19 December 1899, he witnessed the death by a sniper's bullet of the senior American field officer,General Henry W. Lawton. (In an interesting twist of irony, this captor of the Apache leader Geronimo was felledby a Filipino named Geronimo.) Writing back to his former classmates and teachers, Colombe commented,

General Lawton was killed about twenty yards from where I was shooting at a man who was shooting from atree, and I think that was the very man who killed the General. But we kept shooting until he fell from the tree. Idon't think that he will live to tell the tale to his friends that he killed our good General. It is hard on this Island.Sometimes we do not get anything to eat for three or four days. I don't understand why the Filipinos don't quitfighting, because so many of them get killed in every fight that they go into, and not many are lost on our side.___________________________________________________________________

Notes for JOHN JOSEPH "JACK" MULLEN:From "The Saga of Sully Flats," by Adeline S. Gnirk, published 1977, by the Gregory Times-Advocate,

Gregory, SD, pages 247-248.

John Mullen was born June 24, 1894 at Rosebud, S.D., the son of Frank and Jennie (Colombe) Mullen. Heattended private school in Rosebud, S.D. and finished his education in 1904 at the Ward Adacemy in Academy,S.D., operated by Rev. Camfield, a Congregational Pastor. Lloyd Truesdell was a classmate of John's. Mrs.Nash, Jay Seeley's mother-in-law, attended Ward's Academy in 1915. As the law persisted that a child be

30

compelled to attend school until 16 years of age, John had to put in his time at the Mullen School that was taughtby his sister, Mrs. Amy Dion, until he was sixteen. He had learned all his sister taught, in the other schools, so topass away the day he read, prepared his assignments, and read some more. Here he met Victoria Morin.

In 1912, John Mullen and Victoria Morin were married by Father F. J. Guessen from Gregory, S.D. in hisparent's home. They made their home in his father's beautiful house; later they moved to the log cabin, which wasbuilt by his father, in Section 4, Scissons Twp.

Victoria Morin was born August 10, 1895 at River Point, close to Providence, Rhode Island. She was thedaughter of Peter and Matilda (Saucier) Morin, who were of French descent and originally came from Quebec,Canada. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Morin and five children, Anthony, Delia, Joseph, Louis and Victoria, immigratedfrom Rhode Island to Elk Point, S.D. with Matilda's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Antoine Saucier, and her grandparents,Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Desjarlais.

Victoria recalled the first day she went to school at the Mullen School. Her aunt, Mary E. Saucier, took herto the sod schoolhouse in a one-horse buggy. Victoria was frightened and would not get out of the buggy. StellaNoel came over to the buggy, took her by the hand, and led her into the schoolhouse. That was the beginning of along friendship.

In reminiscing, John recalled when he lived on the Rosebud, "We tell of the grasshoppers in the early 1930's,so thick they blotted out the sun, but in 1904 the mosquitoes were so thick and big one had to dress heavy, weargloves, and a face mask. On the neck of a white horse they were so thick a swipe of the hand would leave thehorse's heck red with the blood of the mosquitoes." This was a very wet year, due to so much rain.

In 1911 Henry, the only son of Charles Wienrich, died. John and Albert Flaherty dug the grave. The roughbox was too short for the coffin, so John had to drive to Burke to get a longer box. That evening he and Albertwere lengthening the grave and out of the house came Alva Wiedeman carrying something in a blanket.Immediately they became concerned as they supposed Alva was bringing out the boy's body and they were notready. However, that something in the blanket turned out to be a jug of warming-up concoction. This concoctionwarmed them up; so much so that when a passerby in a buggy drove by, John lifted the lantern up and down about3 times out of the grave. The startled traveler immediately took off with all the speed his team could muster.

In 1926 John's sister Norah Fox died and they raised her son, John Fox. John and Victoria lived out on theranch until November 1, 1956. He had been appointed County Assessor for Unorganized Townships in 1952-55.He was appointed Director of Equalization in 1955-58 and was also County Weed Supervisor for 5 years.

In 1962 John and Victoria celebrated their golden wedding anniversary. They had been married September1, 1912 at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mullen of Mullen, S.D. John and Victoria Mullen werethe parents of five children; three of whom survived to adulthood: Jennie (1913) married Walter Moyer, 3children, Larry, Gail Tietgen and Vicki Davis; Frank (1915) married Lila Kerner, one daughter Ann Ertz; Amy(1917) married George Burcum, children Caroline and George K. Joe died his first year of life from pneumonia,and Josephine was 4 years old at the time of her death.___________________________________________________________________

Those men who helped make Gregory County the fine and rich land it is were honest, hard-working men whogave a dollar in labor for each dollar earned. Their work day was from sunup to sundown, not eight hours a dayor forty hours a week as today. Their pay was about thirty dollars per month, or more if they could qualify for thejob.

As to what a cowboy was made of; it was a Stetson hat, bibless trousers, and high heeled boots. A vest tocarry his Bull Durham, cigarette papers, and matches was a must. When and old time cowboy was asked whatBull Durham was made of, he replied, "Just what the name implies - bull ____ and a little tobacco." It made goodsmoking so they all carried a good supply.

Some or the cowboys wore chaps for protection while riding. Spurs were used by most cowboys, not toabuse the horse, but to help control it when roping or cutting cattle. A good saddle and ropes were required forranch work. No quarter horses were raised in the early days of 1890 or 1900, but the horses were well trained. Agood horse and a good rider were a fine pair when working together.

Some early cowboys were: John and Bill Dion; Sam, Dick, and Joe Emery; John, George, Frank and ClaudeSully; Frank Dimond, Ole Dahl; Ore Unglaub, Joe Reynolds, Matt and Joe Crilly. Frank Kenzie was anoutstanding cowboy and should have had his name in the Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.Most of these have passed on, with a great many more not mentioned here.

Page 148The Gregory Buttes or "Little Pikes Peak" was a lookout used by the Indians to spot Indian war parties,

buffalo herds, wagon trains or a lone horseman of the white race moving into or through their hunting grounds.The buttes were landmarks for the white man's wagon and team to point their way into Gregory County. Theearly ranchers located their cattle and horse herds from the Buttes for the roundups held in Dixon and at the BenTurgeon ranch in what was later Turgeon Twp. in the Whetstone Valley. In many of these roundups were cattlenumbering in the 32,000's gathered together. Cows, bulls, heifers, steers and calves were picked out by theirrespective owners. They were roped and thrown by cowboys on their horses to be branded, de horned andearmarked. One trail boss was Ole Severson, and a few of the riders were Sam Emery, Joe Turgeon, George Pete,John Ham and Carl Nelson. _______________________________________________________________________________

2 U.S. SOLDIERS TELL OF NARROW ESCAPE WHEN CUT OFF BY REDSSLIP THROUGH ENEMY ENCIRCLEMENT AND HAIL OF BULLETS TO REJOIN UNITSBy William R. MooreAn Advanced American Command Post In Korea, July 9. (Delayed) (AP) - Sgt. David Colombe, 34, a Sioux

Indian from Winner, S. D., and Cpl. Van Bullman, 21, of Alexander, N. C., walked into this command post todayand reported they had been playing hide and seek with North Korean troops since July 5.

Stranded deep in enemy territory by a Red tank penetration, they had slipped along a mountain ridge betweenvalleys full of Communist soldiers in order to reach the front and get back to U.S. forces.

With Colombe and Bullman was Capt. Cho Dong On, 24, one of the five members of the South Korean armythe Americans ran across on the second day of their trek. The Koreans also were trying to get back to friendlytroops. Four rejoined their units and the captain helped the Americans find their command post.

Stranded July 5"We went out on the Fourth of July and they attacked on the fifth," related Bullman, a slight youth with heavy

blond stubble on his chin. "We were on these two hills," he said, pointing to his knees, "and they came throughjust like this." He sliced his hands between his knees.

Bullman said Americans fired bazookas at the 32 tanks in the Red column, but never stopped one of them.""We knew the Red infantry would be along behind, so all of us got on one hill."The Red infantry passed on both sides of the hill and all but encircled it."There must have ben a thousand of them for sure," the corporal continued. "The only way out was covered

by crossfire - and that's where we got out."Bullman said enemy fire spat at them every time they moved. Repeatedly they ran short distances and dived

for cover as bullets kicked up ground around them.Died Five or Six Times"We must have played dead five or six times," Bullman said.They crawled down a valley and were nearly exhausted when they reached a village where a 16-year-old

Korean boy, able to speak English, let them stay in his home. The boy's frightened parents asked them to leaveabout 4 a.m. They moved up to a ridge and at first struck north, thinking they would cross the enemy's rear. Butthe Red Columns were too long and they headed southwest. Once they saw the Red soldiers only 200 yards away.

They joined the South Korean troops later in the day.The Koreans were able to get rice from friendly villages along the way. About 4 a.m. Saturday the party

reached the front line and slipped under a bridge held by the Reds. From then on it was only a matter of morewalking.

Bullman had a small shrapnel nick behind the right ear but it was his legs that troubled him."They sure are tired," he said.

From: "Rapid City Journal," Obituary, 17 November 2003.

David Colombe, 88, Rapid City, died Sunday, Nov. 16, 2003, at Fort Meade Veterans Affairs MedicalCenter. Survivors include four sons, Les Colombe, Portland, Ore., Bill Colombe, Leonard Colombe and JimColombe, all of Rapid City. Arrangements are pending with Osheim-Catron Funeral Home in Rapid City.___________________________________________________________________

David is 85 years old and still drives, mows his lawn, and does most of the upkeep on his home. He has beenmarried for 66 years to Josephine and they are both pretty active.

David is an enrolled member of the Rosebud Sioux tribe. He received numerous honors while in the U. S.Army. He received the Distinguished Service Cross, the Bronze Star, and the Purple Heart, the Presidential UnitEmblem, the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal with two Bronze Service Stars, WW II VictoryMedal, Army of Occupation Medal with Germany Clasp, the National Defense Service Medal, the KoreanService Medal with one Silver and one Bronze Service Star, Expert Infantryman Badge, Combat InfantrymanBadge, Honorable Service Lapel Button, and the Sharpshooter Badge with Rifle Bar.

David was identified in a book about South Dakotans who were decorated as follows:"On November 26, 1944 in Germany, armed only with a trench knife, leaped in to an enemy fox hole and

single handedly captured two Germans. Securing a hostile auto rifle he worked his way behind the enemy lineskilling seven Germans and wounded many more as they were attempting to withdraw. His deadly firedemoralized the enemy force, resulting in the collapse of their defense.

Colombe has much of the blood of the original Americans running in his veins and this feat reflected not onlygreat credit on the American Army but on the Sioux Nation as well."

26 July 2001

David was wounded in South Korea, 27 July 1950. He was wounded in action by a missile, and was laterreturned to duty. He was serving in the Infantry, 24th Division.

NORTHWESTERN EXTENSIONDakota Press and Dakotan: Official announcement is made public through the Times of Colome, Tripp

county, of the extension of the Northwestern railroad west from Dallas, and is the first authentic information thepublic has received of the route adopted for the extension of the Gregory county line. The official informationcomes through a right-of-way notice served on Bertha Colombe, as Sioux woman, and also upon other membersof the Colombe family, that the Chicago and Northwestern company has filed with the secretary of the interior atWashington a written application to locate its line of railroad through and across the premises hearinafterdescribed. The description fo the premises follows in the notice, showing that the line will run through theallotment belonging to Bertha Colombe, which takes it throught the present town of Colome, about twelve mileswest a mile or two north of Dallas. This settles the question as far as Colome is concerned.
