{{Main|Post-1887 Apache Wars period}}

Despite the surrender of Geronimo and his followers in 1886, Apache warriors continued warfare against Americans and Mexicans. U.S. forces went on [[search and destroy]] missions against the small war parties, using tactics including [[Heliograph|solar signaling]], wire [[Telegraphy|telegraph]], joint American and Mexican intelligence sharing, allied [[United States Army Indian Scouts|Indian Scouts]], and local quick reaction posse groups.

The U.S. Cavalry had several expeditions against the Apache after 1886. During one of them, [[10th Cavalry Regiment (United States)|10th Cavalry]] and [[4th Cavalry Regiment (United States)|4th Cavalry]] forces under First Lieutenant [[James W. Watson]] pursued mounted Apache warriors north of [[Globe, Arizona]], along the [[Salt River (Arizona)|Salt River]]. During the [[Cherry Creek campaign]], Sergeant James T. Daniels of the 4th Cavalry,  and Sergeant [[William McBryar]] of the 10th Cavalry, and Sergeant [[Y. B. Rowdy]] of the Apache Scouts are the last recipients of the [[Medal of Honor]] for actions during the Apache Wars.<ref>Melzer, p. 285</ref>
