The Battle of Platte Bridge, also called the Battle of Platte Bridge Station, on July 26, 1865 was the culmination of a summer offensive by the Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne Indians against the United States army. In May and June the Indians raided army outposts and stagecoach stations over a wide swath of Wyoming and Montana. In July, they assembled a large army, estimated by Cheyenne warrior George Bent to number 3,000 warriors, and descended upon Platte Bridge. The bridge, across the North Platte River near present-day Casper, Wyoming, was guarded by 120 soldiers. In an engagement near the bridge, and another against a wagon train guarded by 28 soldiers a few miles away, the Indians killed 29 soldiers while suffering at least eight dead.

  • La bataille de Platte Bridge, qui eut lieu le 26 juillet 1865 est l'aboutissement d'une offensive des Lakotas, Sioux et Cheyennes contre l'armée des États-Unis. (fr)
  • La battaglia del Platte Bridge (in inglese Battle of Platte Bridge) ebbe luogo il 25 e 26 luglio 1865 al termine della grande offensiva estiva portata dagli indiani Lakota Sioux e Cheyenne del Nord contro avamposti dell'esercito degli Stati Uniti che presidiavano strade e stazioni telegrafiche poste lungo il corso del fiume North Platte nell'allora territorio del Dakota (attuale Stato del Wyoming). Sebbene sia considerato uno scontro di minore importanza, la battaglia del Platte Bridge dimostrò la determinazione delle tribù delle Grandi pianure a difendere il loro territorio dall'invasione dei bianchi che, in questo modo, mancavano di onorare i termini del trattato di Fort Laramie del 1851.

  • Битва на Платт-Бридж. Битва на мосту через "Платт", также называемого боевым постом у моста Платт, 26 июля 1865 года было кульминацией летнего наступления индейцев против армии США. В мае и июне индейцы совершали набеги на форпосты армии и станции дилижансов на обширной полосе Вайоминга и Монтаны. В июле они собрали большую армию, которая, по оценкам Шайенского воина, насчитывала 3000 воинов, и спустились на Платт-Бридж. Мост через реку Норт-Платт, неподалеку от современного города Каспер, штат Вайоминг, охраняли 120 солдат. (ru)
