Pioneers a force to be reckoned with
By JAYAGANDI JAYARAJ
WHEN First Admiral (Rtd) P.K Nettur was the Navy Chief of East Malaysia, his team did a lot, but most importantly discovered an island for the country in 1976.

As Nettur sent his surveyors to check Swallows Reef, located 300km northwest of Kota Kinabalu, their results confirmed that a few inches of rock did stick up above water level during high tide, qualifying it as an island.

揑t meant that we could claim it as a Malaysian island,拻 he said. 揙nce that had been done, we could claim 12 miles of territorial waters from the island.  

揥e could also claim 200 miles starting from a 12-mile point as our exclusive economic zone,

His Life

Crazy Horse's exact birth date cannot be determined. He Dog, a beef warrior, said during an interview on July 7, 1930, "I and Crazy Horse were both born in the same year and at the same season of the year.... I am now 92 years old." That would mean that Crazy Horse was born about 1838. Encouraging Bear, spiritual adviser to Crazy Horse, reported that Crazy Horse was born in the fall "in the year in which the band to which he belonged, the Oglalas, stole 100 horses." According to winter counts kept by Cloud Shield and White Bull, the year was 1840.

The location of Crazy Horse's birth is also up for debate. A September 14, 1877 article in the New York Sun reporting Crazy Horse's death gives his birth place as the South Cheyenne River. All other sources point to either Rapid Creek, near present day Rapid City, South Dakota, or near Bear Butte outside Sturgis, South Dakota.

Crazy Horse's father, who was also named Crazy Horse (c. 1811) but took the name Worm after passing the name to his son, was Oglala Lakota and his mother, Rattling Blanket Woman (c. 1815), was Miniconjou Lakota. Rattling Blanket Woman may have been a member of the One Horn or Lone Horn family, leaders of the Miniconjou. Crazy Horse had a sister whose name has been forgotten, and a half-brother, known as Little Hawk, born when his father remarried the two sisters of the Brul

Controversy over his death

Dr. Valentine McGillycuddy, who treated Crazy Horse after he was stabbed, wrote that Crazy Horse "died about midnight." According to military records he died before midnight, making it September 5, 1877. According to the Oglala Sioux he died after midnight, making it September 6, 1877. The monument located at the spot of his death says September 5, 1877. Each year the Oglala Sioux meet at the spot of his death on September 6. The photo of the monument to the right says "On This Spot Crazy Horse Oglala Chief Was Killed Sept. 5 1877"
