Doniphan a colonel was ordered by Kearney to negotiate with the Utes and the Navajos but in later October 1846 right before they were supposed to negotiate the Navajos attacked the village of Polvadera. Kearney ordered Doniphan to attack the Navajo; this proved unsuccessful as he was unable to find them. Returning to their campaign against the Mexican Army Doniphan's men won the Battle of El Brazito outside modern day El Paso Texas and then won the Battle of the Sacramento River enabling the capture of the city of Chihuahua. At the latter battle Doniphan and his force were outnumbered by more than four to one in troops and nearly two to one in artillery but only lost one dead and eleven wounded to the Mexican loss of 320 dead 560 wounded and 72 prisoners. Doniphan's men ultimately embarked on ships and returned to Missouri via New Orleans to a hero's welcome. His campaign had taken him and his men on a march of nearly 5500 miles considered the longest military campaign since the times of Alexander the Great. The author George became a highly respected citizen in Latrobe in Westmoreland County western Pennsylvania. Review Publishing Co hardcover
