The Last Plains Indian Chief

Chief Joe Medicine Crow was the last remaining chief of the Crow Indian tribe.  I spent a day with this extraordinary man at a Crow camp outside of Meeteetse, Wyoming in 2011.  He told me his remarkable story on how he became a chief of his tribe.  Joe was the first Crow to obtain a Master's degree in anthropology, and he enlisted in the Army in 1943 and fought the Germans in France.  This is his story as he told it to me.
