After the pretty useless "Lt. Davenport" (George Neise) manages to get his troop ambushed by some Mescalero Apache, and get himself injured in the process, it falls to his sergeant "McCoy" (Chuck Connors) to - forcibly - take command and try to get them to safety. Their problems only increase, however, when they arrive back at their fort only to find that it had already been attacked, and they are on their own. Now they must prepare for an all-out assault on their position with "McCoy" facing a court-martial if they survive! This doesn't hang about, there is plenty of action, a bit of a siege and a minimum of romance as the activity builds to an head. Connors is as wooden as usual, no change there, but Robert Knapp ("Barrow") has a little more to offer and there is an early outing for Harry Dean Stanton ("Miller") for the eagle eyed to spot. This is better than I was expecting, and though you will never remember it afterwards it is a perfectly watchable adventure.
