Custer: Is that Captain Reno bearing down on us?
Captain Myles Keogh: Oh, then you're acquainted?
Custer: Captain Reno never quite got over the fact that I followed him in West Point and now he follows me. The salt that really burns the wound is that I graduated 34th in a class of 34.

The Legend of Custer (1968)
Directed by: Sam Wanamaker, Norman Foster
Starring: Slim Pickens, Michael Dante, Robert F. Simon, Wayne Maunder
Genres: Western
General Alfred Terry: I want you to take a close look at your new command - the scum of the Earth. No enlisted man in uniform can be arrested or tried for any civil offense. That makes the Army a hideout for thieves, renegades, murderers... throw in a few foreign immigrants, professional soldiers and ex-Confederates and that's what's become of your glorious Seventh.
Captain Marcus A. Reno: The boy general. You'd think they'd have more sense then to reinstate him.
Captain Myles Keogh: Why not?
Captain Marcus A. Reno: I've served with him before. Look at him: 28 years old, arrogant, conceited... never mind, you'll find out.
Captain Myles Keogh: Aye, I'm lookin' forward to it.
