Lt. Col. Kirby Yorke is posted on the Texas frontier to defend settlers against depredations of marauding Apaches. Col. Yorke is under considerable stress by a serious shortage of troops of his command. Tension is added when Yorke's son (whom he hasn't seen in fifteen years), Trooper Jeff Yorke, is one of 18 recruits sent to the regiment.
A weary commander must protect a remote Texas outpost while facing a sudden shortage of soldiers. This duty becomes personal when his estranged son arrives as one of the new recruits.
