An American President anxious about his re-election needs publicity. An American Indian Tribe is found who have not signed a treaty with the Government. He can't travel to the other side of the country; the Army won't help,he promotes a Midshipman to form an escort of Sailors, led by a clerk from the Dept., for Indian affairs who turns out to be the Widow of an Army Colonel......a tough cookie. A truly unusual and fascinating story.
