A cavalry outpost on the western frontier during the early days of the Civil War is the setting for this Audie Murphy oater. He butts heads with the new fort commander from Mississippi who doesn't understand the local Indians. Their regional commander, a southern sympathizer, hatches a plan to divert the company by stirring up Indian trouble, then send them south to fight in the war. Murphy discovers the plan, but not before it leads to strife among the men and with the Indians. Curiously, the southerners are allowed to join the Confederate army unimpeded in the end.
