How unusual that two of my ancestors, Martin Brennan and John Ryan, both
served in the Seventh under Custer, and I have a painting of mine in the Armory
of the other Garryowens, New York's Fighting 69th. The Navahos do not
believe in coincidences. "Garryowen Jack" Murphy; the nickname being given me
this year by the 69th's historian Sgt. Vic Olney.
