The Army never gave him the Commission he was trying for. He may have thought of himself as a Lieutenant or Captain but Sargent was about as good as it got!!

I wonder what the outcome for Parker would have been had DuBray gone to The little Big Horn and died with Custer. He was such a good promoter of Parker guns.

If he was toting a Parker and shooting some of Charlie Clevelands loads the Indians would have been in big trouble.

Even bigger medicine would have been the Gattling gun he did'nt think he would need.
