Answer:

The correct answer is D. The result of the Battle of Little Bighorn was that Custer and all of his men were killed.

Explanation:

The Battle of Little Bighorn was an armed clash between a combined force of Lakota, Cheyenne and Arapaho and the 7th Cavalry of the United States of America Army which took place on June 25, 1876 near the Little Bighorn stream, in the eastern territory of Montana. It took place almost at the end of the presidency of Ulysses S. Grant.

The battle was the most famous incident of the Indian Wars and constituted an overwhelming victory for the Lakotas and their allies. Of the twelve companies of the 7th US Cavalry Regiment, five, commanded by the famous Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer, were completely annihilated. The others were besieged for almost two days and suffered substantial losses.
