I would like to point out that the list of outstanding US Marshals leaves out probably the greatest. Bass Reeves. He served Indian Territory, the roughest place Marshals have ever served and he arrested over 3000 wanted men and women. How bad was the area? In one year 10,000 murders were reported in the total US, yet 3,000 of them were in Indian Territory.Of the 270 US Marshals who have given their lives in the service of this country. 200 were killed in Indian Territory.
