Call as Texas Rangers fighting Comanches. Lots of movies have been made about the "Long Walk". I plan on making one myself called, "Navajo: The Long Walk" about this event. I will also narrate the film. It is said that the Navajo women who went on the "Long Walk" took off their shoes and shuffled their feet in the sand to let others know where they were headed. This was important as it was helpful in locating the individual and also told them where to go and who to look for. This method also involved directions as to where the follower should go. The person would then follow the trail until they got where they were going. This in a way was like a compass or even today's GPS. Smart thinking on the Navajo. Where was this when I was in school?
