Robert Francis is a humanistic doctor who butts heads with Cavalry brass dealing with an Indian uprising. The doctor wants to treat not only the wounded Cavalry but the Indians as well, in the midst of a malaria outbreak. His disobeys orders to visit the reservation and is branded a "woodhawk", a bird that turns on its own kind. Donna Reed provides romantic entanglements. Francis was tragically killed the next year at the age of 25 in a plane crash.
