I remember watching this series back in the 60s, but what happened in the individual episodes got lost in the years. So these DVDs provide a refresher to an excellent tv series in simpler times. Jason McCord was unjustly convicted of being a coward after his cavalry unit was massacred by Indians. He then wanders from job to job throughout the West in the 1870s and repeatedly encounters people who really believe him to be a coward. But the other people have their own problems, and McCord does as much to solve their problems as to deal with his own. This series is a throwback to the days when there was good vs bad and right vs wrong. No ambiguity, and good and right always prevailed. Quite a contrast to today's mixed values on tv, the movies, and in society in general. Take a trip back to the old West and to black and white tv (for most episodes in the first year)and enjoy. As a piece of trivia, Chuck Connors was 6 ft 5 inches tall and before his movie and tv career played center for the Boston Celtics. It really was a different time.Read full review
Chuck Connors gives and outstanding performance as Jason McCord a United States Army Cavalry Captain who had been drummed out of the service following an unjust accusation of cowardice. Is he the coward that ran at Bitter Creek or a hero who did all he could to prevent the massacre of his Cavalry Regiment by renegade Apache Indians known as "Dog Soldiers"

This series takes us back to the old west where even in the U.S. Army if you were the sole suvivor of an Indian battle, you were suspect of running away. Great story of a man going through life being forced to prove his courage because of a hangman court decision being kicked out of the Army falsely accused of treson. I'm sure anyone who watches this will be pleased at how they can relate to the wrong way the world forms opinions against anyone!
Never made it only 48 shows but done superbly.Chuck is terrific as always and lots of great guest stars. Print is fair and I’m sure they are cut by 2 minutes or so but it’s only release available‼️
