The story

John Vogelin is a widower and New Mexico rancher whose land adjoins the White Sands Missile Range and is about to be condemned by the United States Air Force to use his land to expand a bombing range. He is the last holdout among the several people whose land the Air Force wants, and he refuses to move, having lived on the land his whole life. Lee Mackie, a young land developer who also has land that is to be cleared for the range, agrees to help the Army vacate the rancher, but realizing that the Army refuses to show any respect for Vogelin's situation, he soon joins in defying the military.
