Well, Captain?
Come down here, Cooper.
What are you gonna do to him, Captain?
- What are you gonna do to him, Colonel?
- He killed a man.
- The punishment's clearly prescribed.
- Cooper, come on down...
Run for the mountains, Jed.
They're gonna hang you.
- Gus, get out of my way.
- It's not his fault, Captain. I know it.
Come on down, Jed.
You, too, Captain.
I would've died for this.
It's nothing but a dirty, filthy, blue rag.
Shoot him, Captain. Shoot him.
Shoot him!
- Gus.
- Yeah.
We got a chance, ain't we?
To make it back, I mean.
Sure.
It's a real likely possibility.
Aren't you gonna say anything?
What can I say?
You could wish me luck.
I wished you luck the night before Shiloh.
You didn't mean it then...
and you wouldn't mean it now.
Col. Marston...
as first officer under your command,
I request you reconsider your plan...
for taking the troops out of this fort.
I've nothing to reconsider.
Capt. Clarke,
escort Col. Marston to his quarters.
Confine him there until further notice.
Under what authority
do you choose to ignore my command?
Orders from Gen. Fisbee at Fort Laramie.
- May I see these orders?
- They're en route, sir.
I sent Mungo to Laramie a week ago,
requesting this action.
It takes a great deal
of courage to go over your superior's head.
Right or wrong, I respect you for it.
But I can't turn back now.
I can't turn back either, sir.
I'm taking the men out.
You'll have to shoot me in the back.
Col. Marston.
Stop or I'll shoot.
Corporal of the guard,
dispatch rider approaching!
I could have
your career for this right here and now...
but I'd be doing the Army a disservice.
You showed courage and daring.
That's becoming a rare quality nowadays.
I leave you in command during my absence.
Prepare to mount.
Mount!
By twos, by the left flank!
Go!
Forward! Hut!
Close the gates.
Go to your posts.
What are you doing here?
Going with you.
Did the Colonel and the men go out?
Did Gus go with them?
The others still at the fort?
They'll be dead.
- Come.
- Wait.
What for?
If you're in a hurry, go yourself.
No hurry.
- What's the matter? Can't you carry it?
- You'll need it.
I'm going with you.
You can't. No more.
Why can't I?
You don't belong up there.
- Why are you going?
- I belong there.
We'd best not leave these trees, Colonel.
We haven't seen an Indian so far, have we?
No, sir, but that don't mean
they ain't seen us.
Their strategy's plain.
They're dropping back hoping we'll split up,
so they can pick us off in small patrols.
Maybe...
but I still don't like
going on into that open draw.
They won't fight
unless we force them into it.
We're wasting time. Go scout ahead.
We'll wait here.
Aye.
Sound the attack!
Back to the trees! Get back to the trees!
Gus. Bucko. It's me, Jed.
Go back to the woods!
Back to the trees! Go back to the woods!
Back to the trees.
Back to the fort! Go back to the fort!
Come on, Luke, you ain't dead yet.
Back to the fort!
Pick up the wounded! Back to the fort!
Back to the fort! Don't stop for anything!
Open the gates.
Take over, Sergeant.
Dismissed!
- How'd I do, Captain?
- Fine, soldier, just fine.
Snow, heat, little meat
Famine almost near
Hiding every tear
Stout hearts, played their parts
In that bygone year
Back there, at the last frontier
The last frontier
The last frontier
