Summary

Jared Wahkinney, a Comanche dancer from Oklahoma, talks with the audience about his dancer regalia during the Fort McCoy observance of National American Indian Month/Native American Heritage Month on Nov. 15, 2018, at Fort McCoy, Wis. Dozens of people attended the event. Wahkinney said the garments he was wearing were not a costume because he wasn’t trying to pretend to be someone else. He said the outfit is referred to as regalia because it represents the history of the Comanche people. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
