It was originally Custer's Last Stand.
General Custer (George Custer, I think) who made an unsuccessful last stand against some Native Americans and he got killed.
Little Big Horn, I think.
Anyway, it's a last-ditch effort that's probably doomed (and if you know it WAS doomed, you can use it looking back in time and say, oh, that was so and so's last stand.)

{"insert name"} means "fill in the blank with the person's name".
The answer to you question is "Custer"
