The story

Maverick scout Ed Bannon (Charlton Heston), a fictionalized depiction of real-life Army scout Al Sieber (1843–1907), is working with Army cavalry stationed at Fort Clark, near Brackettville, Texas. The United States Army Cavalry is trying to talk peace with the native Apaches and move them to reservations far to the East in Florida. Bannon's activities seem counterproductive to this new policy.
