A mid-century Western action film centered on a scout's idealistic pursuit of peace amid military and tribal conflict, driven by period adventure rather than deep introspection.

Chief of Scouts Ed Bannon works for the US Army at Fort Clark, Texas and he dreams of aiding in bringing peace to the region, despite opposition from both the Army and the Apaches.
