The chairman of Oklahoma's Apache Tribe -- who represents more than 2,000 of his people -- didn't get as much ink as his counterpart in Fort Sill, who represents around 600.

But, http://www.wctrib.com/event/article/id/81165/">according to Maynahonah:

...(Maynahonah) doesn’t believe the code name was meant to be derogatory. He pointed to the name’s use as a paratrooper war cry and to the fleets of military aircraft named after Indian tribes, including the Apache helicopter.

“It’s symbolic to me of the Army at the time trying to capture Geronimo,” he said of the code name. “They had a heck of time because he used to slip back across the Mexican border. This bin Laden has been slipping from us for 10 years.”

Amazingly, the "liberal media" is running with the "many in Indian Country say" crap. What a surprise. ;)
