U.S. Cavalry troopers and Apache braves wage an all-out battle for survival in the Southwest desert in this gripping, thoughtful saga about war's power to wear down men's minds and eventually destroy their sanity. Joel McCrea stars as Sgt. Vinson, who must lead his bloodied cavalry group to safety after its commander dies in an Apache ambush. Vinson's bitter hatred for the Apache enemy, however, threatens to cloud his thinking.
