OTR Westerns - Fort Laramie

Fort Laramie  -  Lost Child

Major Barlow has been sent from Washington to survey all posts in the frontier territories. From the outset it is obvious that his ideas on dealing with the Indians on reservations should be with harsh discipline, as prisoners of war.  This varies widely from the opinions of both Major Daggett and Captain Quince.

When a local man reports that his son has been kidnapped by the Cheyenne, Major Barlow wants an immediate and merciless response. Captain Quince, on the other hand, wants a cool-headed response in order to first obtain all the facts.

How will he balance his reaction with the orders he is given?

Featuring: Raymond Burr, Vic Perrin, Lawrence Dobkin, Clayton Post, Ralph Moody, Jack Moyles, Dick Biehl
