Flanking maneuvers
Answer
Flanking maneuvers were a key tactic employed by General George Armstrong Custer during cavalry charges. By sending a portion of his troops around the enemy's flank, Custer aimed to disrupt their formation, cut off their escape routes, and force them into a disadvantageous position. This tactic proved highly effective in several battles, including the Battle of the Washita and the Battle of the Little Bighorn.
