- would you have convicted him?
- I would.
You're a liar.
You voted to please the generals
in Washington.
You voted a promotion
for Amos Charles Dundee.
You're a traitor to your country, Ben.
You gonna blame me for that, too?
Sergeant!
Yes, sir.
than to try to talk to you.
You'll try again, Major.
The Major had asked for thieves,
renegades and deserters...
and that's what he got.
After four hours he had accepted only three.
Ryan, what are you doing here?
I'm volunteering, too, sir. I've earned it, sir.
You'll need a bugler, sir.
- Stand over there.
- Yes, sir.
Benjamin Priam, sir.
What do you do?
What did you say?
- Speak up, I can't hear you.
- I'm a horse thief!
You a good horse thief?
The best there is, sir.
Sign your name or make your mark.
I need horses and mules, Mr. Priam.
Here's the amount you'll have to spend...
and here is your safe-conduct.
- Do you need an escort?
- No, sir.
He'll be back, sir.
Yes, sir. I will, sir.
- Corporal.
- Yes, sir.
- Get Lt. Andreen.
- On duty, Major.
- Lt. Fredericks.
- Hospital.
- Lewison.
- Officer of the day.
- Sgt. Cable?
- Patrol.
- Get me Lt. Graham.
- Yes, sir.
- Five hours, five men.
- You need a regiment.
Charriba can't be taken by a pick-up
company of garrison troopers.
You should know that by now.
What are you trying to say, Frank?
Come on, speak up. Spit it out!
I'm not trying to say that
the massacre was your fault.
I'm saying that you should recognise
that your transfer to this post...
was a disciplinary action, pure and simple.
And if you try to fight your own war again
as you did at Gettysburg, they'll break you.
They won't break me,
not if I get Charriba and those kids.
Has it occurred to you, Major...
that the Apache will undoubtedly
enter Mexico for the winter?
Mexico presently contains an army
of 30,000 French soldiers.
Yes, it's occurred to me.
Frank, I am a professional soldier,
I'm not a prison keeper.
Now this is something that's gotta be done
and I'm gonna do it...
now!
Are you pursuing the Apache, Major,
or a promotion?
Whatever my reasons are, Frank...
you'd better get down on your knees
and pray to God I don't take you with me.
I suppose you intend to strip this garrison.
I will take just 10 men from the command.
Volunteers.
The bulk of my force
will be made up of prisoners.
You'd be well advised
not to accept Confederate prisoners...
even if they're forthcoming.
In my absence,
you'll assume command of the garrison.
Discharge all duties
incumbent upon that command.
I have, as you can see...
appended to your orders
a statement over my signature...
