Sitting Bull

During mid-1876, US Cavalry officer Major Robert 'Bob' Parrish (Dale Robertson) is considered his own worst enemy because he is not a "team player". He gains no friends among the civilian community when he chastises them and threatens to "break heads" when they violate Sioux lands. Parrish is court-martialed and visits his former commanding general—now President of the United States of America—Ulysses S. Grant—who demotes him to captain. Parrish convinces the President to come to the Western frontier to meet Sitting Bull (J. Carrol Naish), who agrees to meet the President secretly. Following the Battle of the Little Bighorn that eliminates Custer, Parrish tries to befriend Sitting Bull and war leader Crazy Horse (Iron Eyes Cody). As Parrish knows the US Cavalry's plan of attack, he leads the Sioux to safety in the North.
