The Apache scouts, used by General Crook in the capture of Geronimo and his followers, contributed the crest for the U.S. Army Special Forces of today--the crossed arrows.
Also, the Apache Wars taught the U.S. Army that conventional warfare doesn't work and never will when fighting the elusiveness of the enemy.
Although never official, the scream of "Geronimo!" was adopted by all U.S Army paratroopers since World War II. (Can you imagine a jumper hollering out "Sitting Buuuull" all the way down?)

The mass killing of the Apache Indians (genocide) in the Southwest contributed to one of darkest chapters of United States' history.
