One of Audie Murphy's last movies is nothing to really brag about. But he is a genuine American military hero and extremely popular. Harsh Captain Bruce Coburn(Murphy)leads a group of the Cavalry to accept a shipment of forty valuable rifles: and hopes to avoid Cochise(Michael Keep)and the Apaches. Corporal Bodine(Kenneth Tobey)starts a mutiny against the much hated Cpt. Coburn and intends to sell the rifles to Cochise instead of going to Mexico to trade them. Cpt. Coburn arrives back to the command post at Apache Wells in shame and loses his rank. In spite of this, he heads out singlehanded to retrieve the guns, capture Bodine and put down a massive Apache attack. Filmed in California and the most scenic location being the Red Rock Canyon State Park. The cast also features: Michael Burns, Laraine Stephens, Robert Brubaker and Byron Morrow.
